Every time someone poses the question or discussion of whether or not children “deserve” apologies or explanations… my face scrunches up and I immediately think,
“Ain’t they a human?”

Apologizing to a Black child is an act of liberation. It validates, empowers, and teaches that accountability is love.

Fleetwood Mac 's "Silver Springs" is a trending sound right now at least on Insta, and people are using it for ... their wedding videos and getting brunch with friends.

they hear "you won't forget me" and go "awww 🥹"

🫠 You don't even need to know the background, just actually listen to the song

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

Last Thanksgiving, two Dallas Police officers knocked on my door, citing a tip from the FBI national threat operations center that I was beating my girlfriend. The incident report confirms this. Today, I obtained a file from the FBI via FOIA that states the FBI has no record of receiving such a tip.
