This is a moral abomination, and a national shame. We’ll be covering it tonight.

National Suicide Hotline 1 800 273 8255 I’ve brushed up against this darkness and I know it’s a tempting exit but REACH OUT to ANYONE. Stay on this side of it — in the light and warmth. Where you get to try again, every day.

“...this is just an example for the next person that has emotions and wants to express themselves and they want to be a strong woman. They’re going to be allowed to do that because of today. Maybe it didn’t work out for me but it’s going to work out for the next person.” 🙌🏾

(2/2) When a woman is emotional, she’s “hysterical” and she’s penalized for it. When a man does the same, he’s “outspoken” & and there are no repercussions. Thank you, Serena Williams, for calling out this double standard. More voices are needed to do the same.

Even if it doesn’t feel like it, there is always hope. Call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) to find help and support. We're here for you, 24/7/365.💚

Child care is a core part of our infrastructure – just like roads and bridges. We can’t just tell every mama: "you're on your own." I told the @NYTimes: If we’re going to help our families and economy recover, we need to make that national investment. nytimes.com/2020/08/06/us/…

14. Happy Korean-American Day and MLK weekend. As Dr. King said, "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." -end-

Sometimes you have to get in trouble--good trouble, necessary trouble--to make a way out of no way.
