I’m praying for the service members who were tragically murdered today. This is absolutely insane!

In the wake of the tragic shooting of the National Guardsman, the political news conversation and our President are already drifting in the wrong direction. The real crisis is one we keep refusing to ...

I think I can officially say this: The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is my favorite person from modern American history. Reading his writings, you can’t help but be transformed by the power of his mind...

Have you ever really stopped to read the grievances in the Declaration of Independence? These were the reasons American colonists declared independence from King George III and the British government..

Close that laptop early, have dinner, buy a dope gift, visit a friend. But most importantly feel the blessings! All of these things were ✔️ off the list today!

P.S. Every time I visit my people, I gotta take a picture in this big ass mirror. LOL

Black men, tomorrow is Monday. You gotta go back into spaces that don’t always welcome you. I want you to stay strong. Remember you are worthy and that a million angels see you and are covering you. You are not alone, you are loved, and you got this!

“Democracy is a fairytale now” America we had it all. We could’ve continued to have it all. My grief for this nation is deep!

I’m in the process of acceptance. But damn, I don’t want to.

I don’t know if this will make a big difference, but I hope it helps! Anything to stand with Americans who still believe in our democracy and freedoms. I don’t think I like the idea of state sanctioned media. I’ll pass on Hulu and Disney ✌🏾

Most people understand this in theory, but Black professionals grasp it immediately and viscerally. We’ve all had to attend galas, fundraisers, and boardrooms alongside people we would never invite into our homes. It’s the uncomfortable and sometimes necessary reality of having a seat at the table..

I carry the painful experience of being familiar with two Black men, particularly in my college years who succumbed to suicide. Not one of those men chose to hang themselves and neither of them did it in a public square. #TreyReed

Today marks the anniversary of one of the darkest moments of the 1960’s. On September 15, 1963, a bomb tore through the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama, killing four little girls: Denise McNair, Cynthia Wesley, Addie Mae Collins, and Carol Robertson...

Do you remember the Reichstag fire of 1933? It gave Hitler the political capital to end Germany’s democracy. Many historians argue it was a “manufactured crisis” from his authoritarian playbook, designed to hand him overarching power.

Air Force Two arrived with J.D. Vance, along with Charlie Kirk’s casket, escorted by military personnel. The transfer underscored the administration’s decision to honor Kirk at the highest level, elevating the moment from a personal tragedy to a national spectacle. 🙏🏾 youtu.be/wKBtNww9ej4?...

I’ve seen criticism of #deanwithrs human reaction to the news of Kirk’s murder. Some even dismiss his work as frivolous. But let’s be clear: in a media landscape where young people are saturated with MAGA propaganda, voices like Dean & Parker are not just commentary, they are a civic intervention...
