Share this clip of my father. We must study him beyond the end of ‘I Have a Dream.’ (and that’s taken out of context, too) #MLK #MLKDay

Before Brutus, Chris the dog, was the unofficial mascot of Ohio State. Chris would attend football and basketball games, and rallies to perform tricks, such as jumping through hoops. He is pictured here in 1941 with his owner and cheerleader, Richard Armel.

Covid vaccinations do NOT damage placentas or cause infertility. Mike Yeadon is master of viral misinformation who does not understand pregnancy or embryology, here’s why his viral claims are wrong. 🧵

According to a recent study from @ClevelandClinic, between 1/1 and 4/13 of this year, 99.75% of the people hospitalized there for COVID had not been vaccinated. This is powerful, real-world evidence from the Buckeye State that 𝐯𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐬𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬!

I’m not dreaming of police officers convicted when they murder. I dream of Black folks living old and thriving.

White people are in denial about what racism looks like/sounds like. Just because it’s prefaced with a giggle and followed with “I feel bad for saying that” doesn’t exempt you from being racist.
A Texas woman explains why she doesn't want affordable housing in her neighborhood. I think this clip is @jbouie and @GeeDee215 bait pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/…

In April, I announced a $1 million grant to @COHHIO to support homelessness prevention efforts and to rapidly rehouse individuals and families experiencing homelessness – who could be at a greater risk of contracting #COVID19.

Regardless of the Alert Level -- I want to highlight two important additional points: 1️⃣ High-risk individuals (roughly 60% of Ohio’s population) are at an increased risk of severe illness and should take every precaution to guard against contracting #COVID19.
