#Haiti was the first country in the world to permanently abolish slavery & the slave trade. Haitians dealt a decisive blow to the entire system of slavery. Our ancestors became a threat to the existing world order. Haitian history is world history. Happy Haitian Heritage Month!🇭🇹

I am declaring December 23 a state holiday so that our hard-working employees can spend more time enjoying the holidays with their loved ones and as another way we can show our appreciation to our dedicated state workers who have helped us change Maryland for the better.

Yesterday, a man asked me on behalf of his daughter how do I respond to people who wld label me an angry Black woman. I said I'd say: You're right. Anger is a perfectly normal emotion right now. We have to stop being so concerned abt civility in response to uncivil circumstances.

"What do #foundations need to do to advance the needs of the Black community? What do Black-led #nonprofits recommend regarding those needs? How does #RacialEquity play a part in the current giving landscape? And what is the long-term outlook for #BlackPhilanthropy?"

Text reads: "I think the urgent action needed is for folks in institutional philanthropy to listen to what Black folks have been saying for centuries and do it. I don’t know if there’s anything more important right now than giving unrestricted multiyear grants." -E. Bomani Johnson. Nafasi Fund logo.
