Honored to be the keynote speaker this coming Sunday at the historic @AbyssinianBC Baptist Church in NYC to celebrate its inaugural HBCU and Greek Sunday. Most likely, I’ll don my Morgan (1867) cardigan sweater and a tinge of @apa1906NETwork gear.

COVID showed that racism is a public health crisis, too.
Until the vaccine is available in the South Bronx, and the East Side of Buffalo, and Wyandanch, and South Jamaica, and Edgerton and East Utica, our health care deserts, our job is not done.

It's noon. I've been to 3 worship services. And thanks to apps like @Givelify, I've given 3 separate offerings. It's a small thing, but let's do whatever we can to keep alive the institutions we love.

Born #otd in 1868, W.E.B. Du Bois was one of the most important African-American scholars and thinkers of the 20th century. His writings continue to influence generations of black activists and freedom fighters today. #BlackHistoryMonth
