For #Give4GoodLou I'm just posting photos of the people we serve and those I serve with.

Did you know we have a farm? We are working to expand access to fresh food in the West End and provide space for community to grow themselves.

Getting people to work and into life-changing careers takes a great team and great partners like the carpenters union. Glad we have both.

I got to take a bunch of the team, many of them younger/newer, to the NUL conference. They are brilliant and the future of the movement.

Good Brothers Pharmacy is one of the many businesses our Center for Entrepreneurship has been able to work with. Proud of these brothers and the impact they are making.

Carey is one of the best job getters in the city. Kia is pushing for better policies so the rest of the work isn't so hard.

Love these two. OG Community Health Workers at the League. Literally help start a movement for CHWs in Louisville. They love this city and it shows in everything they do, even 10 years later.

The Wiz is always a good time! The play is far better than the movie (argue with your momma). But who is in the audience matters. Louisville, if you're going to the show, talk back to actors. Sing along. Clap. Engage! It will make it better!

The superintendent finalists will participate in public Q&A on May 20. This is our opportunity to evaluate each candidate. Regardless of the outcome, the most important question is how our community will behave.

I pledge to do my par. Will you join me?

One of the greatest lies ever told is that you or me are somehow unqualified or deserving of the roles we and titles we've earned. Not only is it wrong, it undermines the Ideals this country claims to value.
