I’m thrilled to give you a sneak peek of BECOMING before it premieres on Netflix on May 6. This movie tells my story, from my childhood on the South Side of Chicago to my life today—and it celebrates the powerful stories of the people I met along the way. #IAmBecoming

When we share honestly about our own experiences, we invite others to do the same. The connections we build in these moments of vulnerability are so powerful and so healing. Tonight at 5pm ET, I hope you’ll join me for the BECOMING watch party. #WatchBecoming

It’s past time for a national ban on chokeholds.

So much has changed so quickly. And if any of you are confused or scared or angry—or just plain overwhelmed—I just want you to know that you aren’t alone. I am feeling all that, too. And I have a few things I want to say about it. youtube.com/watch?v=VXDTmA…

As has always been true at key moments in history, it’s going to depend on young people to go out there and rewrite what is possible. I couldn’t be prouder of all the young people leading that change right now. Here’s my advice for the Class of 2020: obama.org/updates/presid…
