As Black women ascend into the highest positions of power in our nation, they also continue to be the most disrespected group in America. Breonna deserved better. Atatiana deserved better. Sonya deserved better. We have work to do.

Over 1,000 students came to school ready to learn, not to be terrorized. It’s unconscionable that the threat of violence looms over our back to school season.

It is absurd for an elected official whose job is to "govern" a state to offer that evasive response. If you can't pray, protect, and develop policies on behalf of the communities you are elected to serve, move on and let someone else do it! #DoSomething

As NAACP leads the continued fight to #CancelStudentDebt, it’s deeply disappointing to see extremists undermine solutions to one of our nation’s most pressing crises. We’re not backing down. usnews.com/news/top-news/…

For reference, Brian Kemp, this is how you pray and attempt to influence policies that protect and impact the communities you are elected to serve. All at the same time, ironically! We thought this might help. #DoSomething
