Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors.

I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

An executive order does not have the power to override the Constitution.

Remember: no mandate, no majority. 37.75% of the electorate didn't vote; 31.5% voted for him; 30.6% voted for her.

Today, we reflect on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s fight for justice and equality. As we celebrate his legacy, we're reminded that much more work is needed to fulfill the promise of a more just and democratic future for all.

Does the word "revolution" have any useful meaning?

Let's call on author Rebecca Solnit for inspiration. She says, "I still think the revolution is to make the world safe for poetry, meandering, for the frail and vulnerable, the rare and obscure, the impractical and local and small."
