Shocked and devastated at the loss of Taylor Hawkins. I put my thoughts down to help me process my sadness. RIP Taylor.

"Students come in and say, 'Mr. B., tell me we're doing mindfulness. I got some stuff I need to think through. That's the goal! You can recognize and manage your emotions."

When we say, "The kids aren't ready to talk about [type of injustice]," what do we mean? That kids facing racism aren't ready to talk about it? That we want to protect privileged kids or ourselves from truth? That we aren't ready to facilitate the conversation? Something else?
Kinda want to report this @chrissyteigen @johnlegend .....I will miss the headband song 😩 #bringbacktheheadband #sayitaintso

Some folks are saying I won for “demographic” reasons.
1st of all, that’s false. We won w/voters of all kinds.
2nd, here’s my 1st pair of campaign shoes. I knocked doors until rainwater came through my soles.
Respect the hustle. We won bc we out-worked the competition. Period.

The Holocaust was legal. Slavery was legal. Segregation was legal.
The brave woman who cared for and hid my 6 year-old aunt in an attic in Budapest was a criminal. She broke the law by sheltering Juden.
Legality is not a guide for morality.
I need an answer @Delta @EWRairport why can’t someone board who has a ticket and passed thru security?
My Mexican au pair checked in and passed thru security @EWRairport with @Delta with a valid ticket and now is being denied boarding
My Mexican au pair is being discriminated against by @delta she checked in and went through security and now can’t board with a ticket that’s in her name
