Congratulations to Julien Alfred & St. Lucia for the island’s 1st gold medal 🥇 #OlympicGames #Paris2024
Julien Alfred just won the FIRST Olympic medal EVER for Saint Lucia! 🇱🇨 #ParisOlympics
Watching @Simone_Biles' docuseries deepened my respect & admiration. Her talent, beauty, brilliance & courage— especially regarding her mental health advocacy— are inspiring. Also LOVE focus on family & community— so crucial to help all of us rise. #Rising #Olympics @netflix

Congrats to the U.S. Women's Gymnastics team for winning gold and to the GOAT @Simone_Biles for becoming the most decorated American gymnast in history!
Charles Ogletree, teacher, scholar & champion of justice— rest in power. While at @Harvard, I was inspired by his example & generosity of spirit— especially when he promptly responded to a “cold call” email inquiry about a social justice matter from an undergraduate like me.
Michelle and I are heartbroken to hear about the passing of our friend Charles Ogletree. He was an advocate for social justice, an incredible professor, and a mentor to many – including us. Our thoughts are with his wife Pamela, his entire family, and everyone who knew and loved this remarkable man.

Rest in Power Randall Robinson. He made many contributions: the creation of TransAfrica; his advocacy for Haitian self determination; and for the repatriations movement publishing The Debt. May his strength, wisdom and brilliance continue to inspire us all. Ase.

Just realized Greg Tate signed my copy of *Midnight Lightning* Today, this intentionally purple, inked inscription feels like such a gift— inspiring me to keep pushing forward w/ writing my biography of Jimi Hendrix. Rest in power, my brother. #RestInPower #GregTate #JimiHendrix
