We can all be excited about where the party is headed because of the foundation @WadeFPerry help set. Whatever is next for him, I hope it include more fishing and less problem solving--he's earned that.
Sad that @WadeFPerry stepped down as Exec Dir. of @ALDemocrats.
Wade has spent 25 years in Alabama politics, including managing Doug Jones’ win in 2017.
The Democrats are thankful for your dedication and service! You will be missed my friend. My best on your next venture.
Like @chris_mungai said, “African...American. Those three dots for me are both a break and a seam, a fracture and a suture.” I am happy I got to process my experience in Kenya with such a brilliant writer. Read our exchange, this weeks cover story for @thecontinent_.
When my friend @DexterCStrong travelled to Kenya from the US recently, he was hoping for a “Black break”, where he could forget about the racial injustices that are impossible to escape at home.
He didn’t get one. No one gets a black break.
So he and I wrote
Congratulations on making history, Madam Vice President @KamalaHarris. I’m excited to partner with you and President @JoeBiden to get our communities the help we need.

My father wasn’t beloved by America.
In ‘Letter From Birmingham Jail,’ he responded to 8 white clergy who took issue w/the nonviolent campaign he was leading in Birmingham.
He wrote of “white moderates” who were “more devoted to order than to justice.”
13. Conservatives will continue lying to protect the elite. Liberals will continue pretending that we are somehow not exactly what we are and always have been.
