I interviewed Chadwick Boseman in 2017, and to think he was going through cancer while satisfying the physical demands of a Marvel movie... huffpost.com/entry/chadwick-… – at Manhattan, NY

The coronavirus doesn’t care whether you are white, black, Asian, or anything else. It spreads from human to human and is already everywhere around the world. Calling it the “China Virus” to scapegoat Asian Americans only hurts a vulnerable group of people for racist clout.

Imagine someone u love is fast asleep in bed after a long day of working to help others. Imagine that while she is asleep armed strangers break down her door & shoot her in her bed 8 times. If this was ur daughter or sister, u would want justice. #BreonnaTalyor deserves the same.

George Floyd and I were both arrested for allegedly spending a counterfeit $20 bill. For George Floyd, a man my age, with two kids, it was a death sentence. For me, it is a story I sometimes tell at parties. That, my friends, is White privilege.

Why do people get so offended when others just wanted to be treated as fellow humans and with kindness?

You want us to condemn black folks being violent against PROPERTY but you NEVER condemn police killing actual PEOPLE. #Explain #JustTry

Dear White America, As difficult and disturbing as it is to see police officers using violent and excessive force to subdue peaceful protesters, do NOT look away! If these images make your blood boil... welcome to the struggle. Sincerely, Kunta

First up in our #amplifymelanatedvoices series is my favourite karaoke partner @adehogue. Since sharing the stage with Adé at @creativesouthga a few years ago, we’ve watched him go from strength to strength an artist. He’s also on the creative pep talk podcast this week!

It's a privilege to learn about racism instead of experiencing it your whole life.

I know the past few months have been hard and dispiriting. But watching the heightened activism of young people makes me hopeful. And if we can keep channeling our justifiable anger into peaceful, sustained, and effective action, this can be the moment when real change starts.

More than a thread, this is a history lesson not taught in America’s schools or in the books which we use to educate our children. Knowledge is power... ignorance begets itself.

Race and racism is a reality that so many of us grow up learning to just deal with. But if we ever hope to move past it, it can’t just be on people of color to deal with it.

No group, protestors or civilians, have been anywhere close to as violent and sadistic as the police have been tonight.
