Are we really debating words in George Floyd's death? Makes me sick to my stomach. Don't give us excuses for why we hurt when we saw murder in plain view. Y'all - can we not unite on the simple human value of respecting all lives?

I’m so honored to be named the winner of this year’s Jim Thatcher Lifetime Achievement award from Deque. It seems fitting, so close to International Women’s Day, to say thank you to all of incredible women who came before me, who inspired me, supported me…lnkd.in/g33PEx2

Dear #TheRealDonaldTrump You lost. You have many options. Let me suggest enrolling in online universities to improve your vocabulary such as nu.edu or you may even reimagine and revive trumpinitiative.com/ Now, take your toys, like Melania, and go away
