There’s no one more reflective, more honest, and more thoughtful than @barackobama. I’ve seen that in so many ways throughout our life together. And after seeing him pour his whole heart into this book, I know you will too. #APromisedLand ❤️

There are so many Latinx-owned small bookstores across the U.S. — here are just a few to consider supporting on National Support Latino Business Day today and beyond.

Powerful article. Thank you for spotlighting such an important conversation @WriteinBK
“Victim blaming has a long history but it digs deeper with Black girls, who are held to different standards.”
I'm deeply proud of this piece. Thank you @Cosmopolitan.

Only Chadwick could embody Jackie Robinson, Thurgood Marshall, and T’Challa. He, too, knew what it meant to persevere. To summon real strength. And he belongs right there with them as a hero—for Black kids and for all our kids. There’s no better gift to give our world. ❤

Our book club read “More Than Enough” last month. We’d never felt more seen and validated in a book. There were lots of cathartic tears and virtual hugs during our Zoom brunch. Thank you for your transparency and truth. ❤️❤️ #MoreThanEnough
