8 years ago today, I felt the mass in my breast. It changed my life forever. I’m blessed, but A LOT has changed. I needed to look like the ME I’ve known forever. I know I rock the #chemocurls but want to reconnect w/myself…well, from the forehead up. #breastcancer #hairapy

Black men, Republicans want to erase you. They want you brutalized, incarcerated & uneducated.

You voted in 2020, you voted in high numbers. You answered the call.

92% of Black people voted for Biden and 8% for Trump.

Republicans think that they can woo you with a mugshot.…

Is it better to NOT feel any joy?

I’m struggling w/ feeling so much JOY last Sat at a #breastcancer event celebrating Black women. It was jarring learning abt the #Jacksonville hate crime the same day. These pockets of joy are short-lived. So tired of this trauma & heaviness.

WOW: Steve Schmidt should be commended for his resolute denunciation of Lindsey Graham, Kevin McCarthy, and Donald Trump, as they deliberately deceived and manipulated their supporters, prompting the endorsement of a pro-fascist, anti-democratic ideology, thereby precipitating…

Here’s to Billie Jean King and all the changemakers who broke barriers and opened doors for future generations—and to the @USOpen for raising the bar not just for the tennis world, but for the entire world. 🎾

Prescribers who call HIV manageable really show the scope of their understanding after 40 yrs. Limited.

People living w HIV continue to persist in a world where they are second-best. Ableism disguised as progress bc you say manageable. To whom?

Lots talk equity, just talk. 👇

Angela Nixon was all of us when she said, “He lit the match. He fanned the flames. He has blood on his hands.”

GD right, FL Governor Ron DeSantis has blood on his hands.

When you demonize Black people, then have the audacity to patronize them with fake empathy, you are a liar,…

“To be a Negro in this country and to be relatively conscious is to be in a state of rage almost all of the time.” -James Baldwin

It's a vicious cycle of fear, pockets of joy, and rage all the damn time.

The stress of simply existing while Black…and now I have to go to work

I’m feeling…deflated and traumatized again. My great, great grandmother went to Edward Waters University in #Jacksonville . I still have some family there. I feel paralyzed w/fear. No one should be scared to run errands for fear of being killed simply for being Black. #BLM

Just left the House Chamber after Speaker Sexton forced a vote to silence me for the remainder of the legislative day (for speaking “off topic”) and ordered the public cleared out of the gallery.

This is the authoritarianism we are fighting against.

Why is it that Republicans, specifically White men are so determined to deny that racism even exists? In #Jacksonville , the shooter left pages of vile, racist writings. He put swastikas on his guns. He killed 3 Black people because he wanted to. He chose to murder them based on…

THIS!!! 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

On the 60th anniversary of the March on Washington a white supremacist walked into a store in a Black neighborhood and MURDERED 3 Black people.

He MURDERED Black people for being BLACK. He’s not a…

gunman, assailant, or any other adjective used to diminish his savagery.

He’s…
