@MBTA I’ve been waiting to get on a Braintree train for 45 minutes. There has only been 1 and it was so full that only a handful of ppl at Dwntn Xing got on. Your reported delay is bogus.
I, too, sing America...
Tomorrow,
I'll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
Then.
Besides,
They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed—
I, too, am America.
~Langston Hughes
Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. #goodtrouble
Maybe it's easier to call for civility when your people haven't been to the concentration camp, the reservation, bowels of the slave ship or plantation?
If they have and you're still calling for civility, shame on you and honor to your ancestors.
@CraigsCafe we watched as 3 tables who’d come in AFTER us (the only people of color in the restaurant) were served/greeted. First time and never again.
@CraigsCafe just walked out of your restaurant after multiple servers refused to serve our family and helped everyone around us. When I asked who our server was, waitress said could be her or someone else and then walked away to help another table who’d just sat down. Appalled

Bishop @pb_curry sermon from the Royal Wedding: “There’s power in love.
Don’t underestimate it.
Don’t even oversentimentalise it.
There’s power – power in love. . .
There’s power in love to lift up and liberate when nothing else will.”

If some in the press were as hemmed up by this @WhiteHouse’s open embrace of white supremacy, misogyny, mass incarceration, environmental pollution, corporate corruption, and defecation on the First Amendment as they are about what a comedian said, we might be getting somewhere.
