One of the most difficult things that I’ve ever had to do was speak at Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston 90 days after 9 saints were murdered by a white supremacist. Standing in that spot was so hard, but the love in that church is amazing, may they find comfort on this day

MUST-READ op-ed by the brilliant Dr. Alexa White of Hip Hop Caucus 🏁 on the chemical and plastics industry's infuriating strategy of targeting NYS BPHA Legislative Caucus members to erode support for a key environmental justice bill, the Packaging Reduction Act (A1749/S1464) syracuse.com/opinion/2025/0…

URGENT BREAKING: Democrat US Senator Alex Padilla was just thrown to the ground and arrested for trying to speak at a DHS Press Conference by Secretary Kristi Noem. This is Trump’s America. This is so incredibly pathetic. I am so sad for the state of this country.

A US Senator tried to ask a question in a federal building—where he has every right to be. Senator Alex Padilla was forcibly removed, thrown to the ground, & handcuffed. This administration will stop at nothing to silence and intimidate. We will not be silent or intimidated.

Senator Alex Padilla was fulfilling his Congressional oversight duties when he was thrown to the ground and handcuffed. This is no isolated instance; this is a pattern of behavior by the Trump administration. There is simply no justification for this abuse of authority.

On June 13, 1967, Pres. Lyndon B. Johnson nominated Thurgood Marshall to the Supreme Court. After a heated debate, the Senate confirmed him on Aug. 30. Two days later, he was sworn in as the first Black justice in U.S. history. 📷: Bettman/Getty

9 Beloved. 10 years ago today, they were murdered in church in a vile, hateful, racist act. We remember and honor their lives. #Emanuel9 #MotherEmanuel #Charleston

I am so devastated to hear that Eric Garner’s widow Esaw has passed away. When NYPD Officer Daniel Panteleo murdered Eric Garner, it started a chain of events. Erica and Emory both passed away from heart attacks and now Esaw. Please keep Emerald and her family in your prayers 🙏🏾
