From our earliest days, Black history has always been American history – and Black folks have profoundly shaped our American culture through music, art, literature, sports, and beyond. One month a year is not sufficient to celebrate the power of the movements and the people who have fought for the rights we enjoy today. That’s something that we have to do each and every day, as we strive to live up to their example and make sure our children and grandchildren remember their stories.

The work that we have done over the past four years has made a profound difference in the lives of so many — people we may never meet, but who benefited because of our work. Join me and take a look back at nine moments from the Biden-Harris Administration.

Happy Birthday, Daddy. Today, I celebrate you—your love, your courage, and your unwavering commitment to justice and freedom. Your vision for a world rooted in love and reflective of the #BelovedCommunity continues to inspire me and so many others. I miss you deeply, but I feel your presence in the work we continue and in the lives you’ve touched. Your dream lives on, and I’m honored to carry it forward. I love you always. #HappyBirthdayMLK #MissionPossibleMLK #BeLove #Nonviolence365 #MLK96 #MLKDAY #MartinLutherKingJr

As a proud Angeleno, the fires that have devastated our county have been heart-breaking. I am so fortunate that while my own home in the Palisades was at risk and had some damage from the fires, I am safe. So many others cannot say the same, and my heart goes out to all of those who have been affected and are rebuilding their lives from ash. I wrote this poem, “Smoldering Dawn”, to process my own fears and prayers for us as we come together as a community to heal from this trauma. While we mourn what we have lost, we also give thanks to the first responders, firefighters and civilians who have fought so tirelessly to combat these fires and ensure the safety of so many. To honor them, I’m releasing this poem as a fundraiser for the California Fire Foundation, which is offering support and aid to firefighters families, as well as those who have been impacted by the fires. 💛 Give what you can, help who you can, stay safe, and this too we shall conquer. instagram.com/linking/fundra…

By popular demand, here is the DIRECTOR'S CUT of THE KAMALA HARRIS STORY, a short documentary I made for the Democratic Convention. Once folks heard there was a longer version, they asked me to show it. So watch, share, and VOTE! #electionsmatter
