Ever loved something enough to critique it and work for its improvement? It’s called being a critical lover. Acknowledging the US is plagued by systemic racism is not tearing down our nation. It’s being honest so it can live up to its promise.

Five days ago, Mr. Eddie Logan, a Veteran with chronic health conditions, was on the phone, sitting in the passenger seat of his wife’s car when he got some very difficult news-- he was going to be evicted from his home.

I interviewed @iamwesmoore about his new book, “Five Days.” It was enlightening, enraging, and just the read to connect the dots across the uprisings we are witnessing. Freddie Gray and the aftermath of his murder felt all too similar to Ferguson after Mike Brown Jr’s murder.
Tonight! Watch our virtual author event with @iamwesmoore author of "Five Days: The Fiery Reckoning of an American City." He'll discuss the book with @kirabanks at 7:00 p.m. on the @HEC_TV Facebook page: facebook.com/hectv

People don’t hear themselves. If your defense against being a racist dept is to talk about a hire in the 80s..... stop. Just stop right there. You’re not helping your argument.
As the 1st BW to graduate from Yale astro w a PhD in astrophysics, I was asked to comment on the racist dept emails sent by senior faculty in this @buzzfeednews story. TBH, I wasn't planning to. Not surprising and not worth my time. #BlackintheIvory buzzfeednews.com/article/ste…

.@AOC: If you're calling for an end to unrest, but not calling out police brutality, not calling for health care as a human right, not calling for an end to housing discrimination, all you're asking for is the continuation of quiet oppression.

HOW do you talk to kids about events like #GeorgeFloyd, #AhmaudArbery #BreonnaTaylor or #AmyCooper? Here's a video with some ideas.
- What questions are you getting from your children?
- What topics are you having a hard time explaining?

"It's Like Emmett Till all over again."
@kirabanks and I talk police shootings, anti-Blackness and our society’s complacency with black death.

I get that it is "responsible" to map out what it would look like to open up [insert blank]. I just hope we do it while centering issues of equity in our plans. Let the disparities we see guide our steps, and let the equity we want be our north star. #moveatthespeedofequity
