  2. Truth matters. If the U.S. turns the light of truth on slavery, racism and genocide, including of indigenous peoples, conversations and solutions regarding repentance, reconciliation and reparations will be central to compassionate, just national discourse.

  4. My father was assassinated via a gun. My paternal grandmother was shot and killed while sitting in church. I am a survivor. Gun violence, including state-sanctioned and white supremacy fueled gun violence, has extinguished so many lights.

    NIGERIA. The largest black population in the world. A large Muslim population. A US ally, and one of the most important economies in Africa. Trump's comments about African nations being sh*thole countries were not just words. He was foreshadowing actual policy direction.

  13. “America” has yet to be. This has never been a country of “liberty and justice for all.” We can make it that. With courageous, compassionate action; coalitions to build a more just, peaceful, and humane nation; and strategic civic engagement. No . Let’s finally be.

    The young people of this world are up and fighting. Walking out. Talking back. Getting in the way. And they’re doing all of this even though we handed them a *dying planet.* If they can keep going, so can we.

    A look at . A community of Black people, 300 human beings, murdered by a White mob. This wasn’t long ago. Racism and white supremacist terrorism remain as evils in America.

  20. Thank you for your kind words regarding my mother. Because of her example, I’m encouraged that we have the capacity to translate tragedy into transcendent work in honor of the departed and for the good of humanity.

  21. You weren’t behind ; you were with him. In fact, he shared that you taught him about the anti-war movement and encouraged him to be a peace (anti-war) advocate; and to break silence about the Vietnam War. We miss you. You persisted. We persist.
