And I’d like to use this moment to share some *PROFESSIONAL NEWS* as well. I’m leaving @npr, after 12+ great years. My last episode of @NPRItsBeenAMin will run March 11. Here’s the note I sent to colleagues. (It’s a little long.)

We lost a legend today. R.I.P. Hugh Downs ❤️
ORIGINAL “20/20” HOST DIES IN 2020 I really loved watching Hugh Downs and Barbara Walters host “20/20” on Friday nights. They were together from 1978-1999. Hugh has passed away at the age of 99. May he R.I.P.

The Kerner Report, a groundbreaking 1968 study of racism in America, was ignored by LBJ, who actually ordered it. If LBJ had heeded Commission, could the uprisings in Ferguson, Baltimore, LA, have been avoided? clickamericana.com/topics/cu…

After watching Cohen Hearing a while back, the most memorable moment for me was #ElijahCummings speaking afterward about staying focused, respecting each other & the process. He was an honorable man whose passing will be missed by "the honorable." #RIP youtu.be/5W-74Hp3GzE

Today, there will be no shortage of encomiums to Dr. King. But I fear what will be lost is the quality of his character and the fierceness of his beliefs. Many who now pay lip service to his legacy would be demonizing his rhetoric if he were alive today. #MLK50 #WhatUnitesUs
