This was very well explained. Always love when we talk BUSINESS with our institutions. Most of the time as soon as business gets mentioned it’s going to fly over folks heads, further proving the point.

I know we’re exhausted, disheartened, and rightly terrified. But we’ve been here before. We’ve fought, resisted, and built—together. Today, I’m reflecting on where we go from here and how we keep moving forward.

Proud to join @SBatten in critiquing a grantmaking strategy "that provides funding at a mercurial and slow-drip pace. Funding organizations in this way does not support them if we want them to win." We're committed to meeting the challenge of the moment and invite you to join us.

.@POTUS canceling $10k in student debt will help millions, but this is only a partial fix. More solutions are needed to fully address the student debt crisis which saddles Black students with nearly twice the debt ($53k) of their white peers ($28k). cnb.cx/3AIwKGI

Generously giving time and money has long been part of Black American culture, regardless of economic status and continuous oppression.

This is unacceptable. Shame on @GregAbbott_TX for appointing indicted @Austin_Police Officer, Justin Berry.
Gov. Greg Abbott has appointed Justin Berry, an indicted Austin police officer accused of using excessive force during 2020 protests, to Texas' agency that regulates law enforcement.
Currently, Berry is charged with two counts of aggravated assault.
