A few years ago, I mentioned “Lift Every Voice and Sing” during class. To my surprise, many of my students had never heard of it before although it was written and composed right here in Jacksonville, FL. That day, lessons were put on hold for something greater ❤️ pic.twitter.com/q2GPDzOcif

#OnThisDay, Black baseball legend Hank Aaron was born. He ended his career on the diamond with 755 total home runs. Off the field, Aaron also fought racism throughout his career and continued to use his platform to support civil rights issues until his passing. #BHM pic.twitter.com/0cApWclq68

Generations of Black patriots have fought in every battle. In every war.
They fought when that freedom didn’t include them.
While progress has been made, there’s more to be done.Black History is American History.#BlackHistoryMonth #GenerationsOfBlackPatriots @MajorViolins pic.twitter.com/b7CxBl3tg2

President Biden was one of the best VPs we’ve ever had. I appreciate the fact that he’s determined to ensure that #MVP Harris is a better VP than he ever was. I have so much respect for him. I was wrong for doubting him in the primaries. He’s a good man.

I hadn’t thought of this before, but when Hakeem Jeffries becomes the House Speaker, the white populist left is going to come for him full force in a way they never came for Nancy Pelosi.
And they really hated Nancy Pelosi.

Today’s speech by @VP Harris & conversation with Ambassador Ischinger are why I supported her for President. She is too often underestimated & maligned & I think we all know why. I have no doubt that if she ever becomes President one day, she would be a very effective President.

.@VP Harris just made the single most significant speech by an American leader in a global forum to prevent war since the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962.
This is American leadership in action.

Jean-Luc Brunel, the man accused of soliciting underage girls for Jeffrey Epstein, was found dead of apparent suicide in his jail cell.
His death eerily mirrored that of Epstein’s. https://t.co/Wns4h1gxbF
