    Well said.

    I am heartbroken to learn that Urvashi is gone. She was fearless, loving, a friend who could laugh when we were in our toughest moments in the struggle for human rights. A warrior for our world - we are better for having been part of her amazing life. 💔

    We lost a social justice warrior today and a good friend to so many of us. Urv pushed all of us to to do more, to be more fierce and resolute in our struggle. And that laugh!

    We should all be so lucky to have even 1% of the positive impact on the world that Urvashi Vaid did, and in a life cut short today. Vision, commitment, brilliance — yes, but her relentless persistence to see it through was truly rare. God bless you, Urv. A life so well lived.

    Dan Snyder is a bully with endless money to harass and silence witnesses. This is a dangerous combination. -- allow Jason to address publicly the allegations the Snyders have made about him.

    We are hurt & disgusted at the clear attempt by the Snyders & to smear Jason Friedman while completely deflecting & distracting the public from the truth: that the Snyders operate a franchise rooted in corrupt and toxic behavior.

    This photo was snapped at The White House, yesterday. Whether you voted for them or against them, the achievement and historical significance of the first Black President and first Black woman VP, should not be taken lightly.

    "Persevere." That hits me in the gut. If you've ever been the only person in a room, you know that feeling. Black women know that feeling—persevering in the face of those who want us to fail. But—Judge Jackson is here, and she's going to the highest court in our country.
