If you're trying to market to, educate or influence Black & Latino communities, you need to speak to us year-round, not just during Black History Month or Hispanic Heritage Month. #diversity

🗣️ I love this person!! (let’s ink in our visit, @_ybonaparte!)
For @_ybonaparte, visual storytelling is her passion, and @NAHJ has been a vital part of her journey. From staff member to visual editor at @palabranahj, NAHJ provided the mentorship, community and opportunities to develop her craft. 🔗 bit.ly/40th-Donate #MoreLatinosInNews

Thank you to everyone who reached out after hearing about Judith Jamison. I love that I’ve introduced many of you to dance & to the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. She & other Ailey dancers hang on my wall. Like every Dec., I’ll see you in the audience in NY. #Ailey

I admired Judith Jamison so greatly! A fiercely talented dancer from Philly who gave me inspiration because of her height. Alvin Ailey chose her to lead his dance company after him. She leaves us with much, we mourn her & her gift to dance still.

Black Americans vote like they vote not because they align with every single Democratic policy but because they understand this country with a clarity that can be challenging for people who have not had to live under apartheid in the U.S., who’ve never known what it’s like NOT to be able to cast a ballot, not to have rights of citizenship, not to be protected by this nation’s laws. Black Americans know American fascism because they lived under it — and that understanding overcomes any other policy choices that they might otherwise vote on. Black people uniquely understand this nation, and how awful it can get.
