For decades, Narges Mohammadi has been a vocal advocate for women and girls in Iran. This The Nobel Prize is a well-deserved recognition of her courage, and the hope that she represents—not only for the women in Iran, but for women fighting repression and violence around the world.

#OTD in 1856, Moses Fleetwood Walker was born in Mount Pleasant, OH. He was one of the 1st African Americans to play in the majors, but also, an inventor, entrepreneur, lecturer and newspaper publisher. Here’s a color study of him with the Syracuse Stars in 1889.

Why Black doctors like me are leaving faculty positions in academic medical centers I wrote this piece almost exactly 4 years ago. I'm reposting in light of the news about President Gay's resignation. Academia is a toxic environment for Black people. rb.gy/50f11t

Let’s be real. This is an extension of what happened to me at UNC, and it is a glimpse into the future to come. Academic freedom is under attack. Racial justice programs are under attack. Black women will be made to pay. Our so-called allies too often lack any real courage.

I had at least 100 reasons to smile after announcing our plans to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the 1st Negro Leagues World Series held in 1924 & unveiling our new logo to commemorate that historic milestone. The Kansas City Star photographer, Tammy Ljungblad, captured my excitement! MLB

In SEVEN DAYS, you can buy a copy of Warrior on the Mound! Set in 1940, 12 year-old Cato Jones dreams of pitching for the Kansas City Monarchs of the Negro Leagues, just like his father and brother. However, there are many challenging chapters ahead of him on this journey.
