I’m grateful to be named to The Root 100 list of 2025 for helping lead the Target Boycott.
This honor belongs to the people who stood up when Target turned their backs on us.
We warned them: turn your back on our communities, and we’ll turn up the pressure. And we have. 1/2

D’Angelo was more than a musician, he was a vessel of soul, a conjurer of feeling, a truth-teller in melody and rhythm. He bared his soul with every note and we felt it.

Thirteen unhoused people were hurt in Minneapolis.
And America shrugs.
These folks are not invisible. Not disposable. Not less human.
The relative silence on this tragedy is a moral failure.

62 years ago today, these four girls were killed by white supremacist hatred in the 16th Street Baptist Church Bombing.
We must remain steadfast in our collective fight against anti-Blackness and hate in every form.

Larry Ellison is worth roughly $400 billion.
Elon Musk is worth roughly $385 billion.
Meanwhile, the minimum wage is still $7.25/hour, 86% of Americans stress over grocery prices, and most are living paycheck to paycheck.

As Trump unleashes the national guard on DC, it’s important to note that President Biden had similar views.
Democrats cannot adequately oppose the Republican Party until they themselves get rid of the corporate-backed politicians within the party.

Republicans are taking a page out of the Democrats’ playbook: telling the American people the economy is good while Americans struggle to afford the basics.
I called out Democrats at the time, now I’m calling out Republicans.
People are STRESSED about the cost of things.

No, President Trump should not use the federal government to take over Washington DC.
First, crime in DC is down.
But let’s take a step back, are conservatives saying that the federal government can be a solution?
If so, let’s start with Medicare for all.

I went on Newsmax to talk about those who say Zohran Mamdani’s economic vision is too extreme.
Here’s the truth: the vast majority of Americans are stressed over things like the price of groceries.

This is NOT “America First.”
This means that if a city or state decides to boycott investments in Israel, if its citizens are suffering from a disaster, the federal government will not provide FEMA funds to those cities.
Completely unacceptable.
