On the 80th anniversary of D-Day, we recognize Cpl. Waverly B. Woodson Jr., part of the only Black combat unit to land on that Longest Day. Despite being wounded, he treated over 200 soldiers (5% to 7% of all U.S. casualties on Omaha Beach) for 30 hours amid unimaginable chaos. For his heroism, LONG overlooked due to racism, he is now rightly being recognized with the Distinguished Service Cross! 🙏🏿 politico.com/news/magazine/2…

After the Oscars, I watched “The Last Repair Shop,” which just won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Short Film. Beautiful story about LA’s free instrument repair program for public school kids. Congrats to the filmmakers and @LAUSDSup (who previously led Miami’s schools).
