His name is George Floyd and he was murdered by 4 officers. Words have never been ENOUGH. We cannot ignore. George’s life was stolen from him in the cruelest way possible. We are the sum of our actions, and fully responsible for our silence. #JusticeForFloyd

What happened to Christian Cooper can lead to what happened to George Floyd. And this has been happening for generations—cell phones only made it more visible. We’ve had enough. We need immediate, systemic changes to address these injustices.

📍Black Lives Matter Plaza, Washington, DC It took a pandemic, lockdown, and 3 recent unjust murders for the world to take a moment and realize we still don’t have the equality we deserve. #enoughisenough #blacklivesmatter

Wow, Fulton County DA says one officer in the Rayshard Brooks case kicked him after he was shot. The other officer stood on his shoulders. This officer has now become a states witness and admitted to standing on Brooks.

Black history is American history. Proud to announce that beginning next year, Juneteenth will be an official city and school holiday.

Juneteenth has never been a celebration of victory, or an acceptance of the way things are. It's a celebration of progress. It's an affirmation that despite the most painful parts of our history, change is possible––and there is still so much work to do. nytimes.com/2020/06/18/opi…

Today I’m tipping my hat to all the giants in the Negro Leagues, from Satchel Paige to Toni Stone and so many others. Their brave example, first set 100 years ago, changed America’s pastime for the better––opening it up for new generations of players and fans alike.
