We lost a true friend yesterday. Joe Madison, “The Black Eagle”, was a radio legend and freedom fighter. He was as committed to issues that affected Black America as anyone I’ve ever known. I first met him in Detroit when he was with the local chapter of The NAACP.

We must recognise the time for changes in the global systems is now. If the world is to truly find love, peace and prosperity, the structures that exist to create global stability must be rebuilt on the principles of fairness and the inclusion of all nations. #UNGA

These are elementary school children who woke up this morning. Who ate their favorite cereal. Who tied their shoes in double knots. Who laughed with friends on the bus. Now more than a dozen are dead. This isn’t normal. It doesn’t have to be this way. It can’t keep being this way

This is America. Where it's easier to get a gun than paid parental leave or baby formula. Where kids can learn shooting drills in school but can't learn about diversity. Where gun sales are skyrocketing but Congress (GOP and Manchin) can't fund the child tax credit.

Today, on Labor Day, millions will lose unemployment benefits, in the middle of an escalating pandemic. Most will be poor and low-wealth, low-wage workers we called "essential." They saved the democracy, were the first to work, get infected, sick, and die.

One of my favorite memories from Video Soul was the day Shock G came through sprinkling Humpty dust all over BET. It was only time I can remember where everyone got into the act. We even showed the control room doing The Humpty Dance with fake noses on. He was so much fun. RIP

DAMMIT!!! We lost Shock G, Piano Man, and Humpty Hump all in one fell swoop. He was a genius. A great guy and a great interview. One of the best interviews of my life was the afternoon we spent in Emeryville 25 years ago when he went ON RECORD as being Humpty and broke it alldown

Arizona GOP state rep: "everybody shouldn't be voting...Quantity is important, but we have to look at the quality of votes as well." This rhetoric is straight out of Jim Crow & very thing that was used to justify mass disenfranchisement of Black voters cnn.com/2021/03/11/politics/…
