After dad was assassinated, Harry Belafonte joined me, mom, and my siblings in Memphis. He was one of the only people to make sure that mom and her children were taken care of in the months, days, and years after the assassination. He was there for us even when others had gone.

Harry Belafonte, 96, Dies; Barrier-Breaking Singer, Actor and Activist (Published 2023)

#OTD in 1968, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his final speech, known as the "I've Been to the Mountaintop" speech, in Memphis, Tennessee. Hours later he was fatally shot outside his room at the Lorraine Motel. His words live on in the continued fight for civil rights.

I met @HelenGymPHL fighting off school closures in Black and Brown neighborhoods. As a mom, that’s exactly the leader we want as Mayor and why I’m supporting her. Her track record goes far beyond just being an elected official. Learn more about out her story in this thread. 🧵
