.@bathbodyworks how many times y’all gonna show products available in the store for online purchase and pickup only to cancel some of the order just after the sale ends?

.@WixHelp I need help escalating Request 48003005. I contacted Wix Customer Care promptly after a February 17 charge, and the plan was canceled, but my refund has not been resolved, as promised by your customer service department on February 21.

Some of the most important work happening inside institutions never becomes visible. On March 6, I’ll be with the faculty and staff of Benjamin Franklin Cummings Tech discussing Strategic Storytelling for Institutional Impact — and how institutions make their work visible.

HBCUs Are Not Beyond Critique—But We Are Beyond Being Scapegoated open.substack.com/pub/herdue… #HBCU #HerDue

I finished everything I was called to do. Not by ease, but by endurance. What tried to undo me didn’t win. The fire refined me instead. I laid down what wasn’t mine. I honored what remained. Still here. Still standing. Only now becoming. #HerDue

Honored to join @TCLFdotorg for Landslide in Action: The Legacy of Two Major Campus Protests — remembering the 1924–25 @Fisk1866 Univ. student uprising and the power of protest as a sacred act of faith. Oct 29 | 12–1:15 PM ET • Free Registration 🔗 tclf.org/legacy-two-major-ca…

Faith without works is dead. Love without effort is, too. YOU CAN’T PLANT A SEED ONCE AND CALL IT A GARDEN FOREVER. Love, like faith, needs tending. Show up where love still lives. 🌱 #ThePresentPresent

A week ago, a week ago, I stood behind the sacred pulpit at Barber-Scotia College—the Home That Built Mary. There, I was humbled to receive the Presidential Service Award. In the beginning was—and is—faith! All who are forced to wander are not lost. #HomeThatBuiltMary #HerDue

Inside every woman is a little girl. When we police her edges, her voice, her power, we harden hearts & grow women who defend the cages that held them — freedom on the flyer, submission in the fine print — all while bowing to patriarchy at autocracy’s edge. #HerDue

Founder’s Day away from the Home That Mary Built—sowing into the Home That Built Mary. Standing where a young Mary McLeod once dreamed reminds me: Every founder was once a dreamer seeking believers. May we build boldly for those to follow. #BarberScotiaCollege #HailWildcats

Twenty years ago, Chalk’s Flight 101 fell into Government Cut. Lost were her grandfather & our cousin—clutched to his chest. Even so, she soars! Today I celebrate my good Bimini Saunders cousin: you were always enough. We are too proud. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Now out in @DiverseIssues 🔥 Stack Sisters: Building Radical Empathy Convening Spotlighted Black Women Librarians Honored to lift up the memory work & radical empathy of Black women archivists + librarians. Ever-grateful to teach + tell these stories! bit.ly/47ABpLH

Libraries have always been sanctuaries. Their love has lifted me & powers me through storms. Honored to join the Building Radical Empathy Online Convening, Sept 3–4, 2025 — supported by @US_IMLS. #BRE2025 #RadicalEmpathy 📚

Were you afraid? If you were, I don’t remember. At 3, maybe 4, before Daddy left, before life’s wonderful & cruel breath, you sang “O, Tannenbaum” on a spit of sand. At 43, you’re still singing—stronger than you know. god will never leave you halfway. Love, 43 🎉

Honored to join B-CU’s century-old Women’s Advisory Board, carrying forward Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune’s legacy! Mummy on a Teddy Roosevelt quote: “Smart, but it wasn’t his blood on the battlefield.” She’s right. Words inspire, but real service demands skin in the game. #HerDue

Thankful for the Black women who remind me even crumbled papers hold the truth. We don’t all have the same assignment. Mine won’t let me part seas & hide in corners. Even if I never make it, I’ll keep building the Promised Land. #HerDue

Too many Black women at HBCUs are treated like “pets” when we’re agreeable—and “threats” when we dare to lead. We can’t keep losing the very women who make these places great. 🖊️ My latest in @DiverseIssues: 🔗 bit.ly/3H9Ozo9 #FromPetToThreat #HBCU #HerDue #HBCUs

Thank you to Denise Maycock and @Tribune242 for this vital coverage. Grand Bahama needs more reporting that informs and empowers—not just entertains. Literacy is power. Too many trust WhatsApp and YouTube without question. We must interrogate our leaders and our sources. Read more: bit.ly/4msf2vZ
