“We are here because the American dream and our American democracy are under attack and on the line like never before. We are here at this moment in time because we must answer a fundamental question.  Who are we? Who are we as Americans? So, let’s answer that question to the world and each other right now: America, we are better than this,” - Kamala Harris Jan 27, 2019 Oakland, CA  Sen. @KamalaHarris : "With faith in God, with fidelity to country, and with the fighting spirit I got from my mother, I stand before you today to announce my candidacy for President of the United States."

Education can help counter hate. More than ever it is imperative that we Never Forget!

Currently, I am reading Kamala Harris' new book, The Truths We Hold .  Highly recommended.  Americans who live paycheck to paycheck can't afford another day, let alone another week, of a government shutdown. Let's do the right thing and vote on a clean bill to reopen the government tomorrow. pic.twitter.com/Ub5SZP46gq — Kamala Harris (@KamalaHarris) January 24, 2019 "Americans who live paycheck to paycheck can't afford another day, let alone another week, of a government shutdown.

The #MLKNow program is live now from Riverside Church, site of one of his most revolutionary speeches. It will include a panel on athletes and activism moderated by @jemelehill and a conversation between Ta-Nehisi Coates and @AOC . Watch it live here.

Powerful and Timely! Kudos to The Killers and Spike Lee "We got more people locked up than the rest of the world Right here in red, white and blue Incarceration's become big business It's harvest time out on the avenue" "So how may daughters, tell me how many sons Do we have to put in the ground before we just break down and face it We got a problem with guns" A real national emergency is the epidemic of gun violence in America. On average, 96 people die from it every single day. Let's do something about that. — Kamala Harris (@KamalaHarris) January 12, 2019 Bob Lefsetz writes,"The message of the song, the message of the video. What does America stand for? But that wall hasn't been built yet and the Killers don't want it to be. They're making a statement that will reach their fans more than anything in the "New York Times," never mind Fox News. That's the power of art, to change minds. And if ...

In solidarity with @hasanminhaj , @patriotact and to honor the memory of Jamal #khashoggi , everyone should watch and share Hasan’s brilliant Saudi Arabia episode, which the Saudi government banned. It is still online on YouTube

Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow. - My little horse must think it queer To stop without a farmhouse near Between the woods and frozen lake The darkest evening of the year. - He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there is some mistake. The only other sound’s the sweep Of easy wind and downy flake. - The woods are lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep. -Robert Frost
