@sharwitz @goldlikejoel @ryanstasik @umphreysmcgee Hi Steve -- I met you and your brother about three years ago in Chattanooga before a Bob Weir show. Glad to see you're still in top form!

Watching Taylor Hawkins play the drums and listening to him anchor the Foo Fighters was one of life’s great joys. The news of his death is just heartbreaking. RIP, Taylor.

BREAKING: 100+ teachers, school staff, parents & students are outside Asheville City Board of Education demanding baseline living wages to reduce staff turnover & fund our kids’ futures. Over 900 people have signed a petition in support, 75% of which are school staff. #avlnews

Apparently, thousands of Romanians have been waiting in their personal vehicles to pick up #refugees at one of the NE borders with #Ukraine.
I'm not often elated at news from back home, but this makes my heart swell. #StandWithUkriane #standwithrefugees

I'm currently serving in the capacity as Education Committee Chair for the Jackson County NC NAACP Branch 54AB. Our response to Superintendent Nolte's unilateral decision to remove Dear Martin from high school classroom @VelshiMSNBC #velshibannedbookclub https://t.co/aJPi2HW2h6

I’m attending Cal Cunningham for Senate’s event, “Carolina Conversations with Cal Cunningham!” – sign up now to join me! https://t.co/noHVFaDll3

@brittanyawriter Hope you're enjoying it! Just finished it today. I'm thinking not as solid of a second installment as I was hoping. Maybe you'll feel differently.

So the corporate purveyor of the world's most recognizable soft drink can say "Black Lives Matter," but @VP Mike Pence just can't summon the political "courage" to do the same? Please. #BlackLivesMatter

[Coca-Cola Racing @CocaColaRacing]

We’re incredibly proud to have @BubbaWallace in the @CocaCola racing family, and we stand by our partners @NASCAR in their decision to ban the Confederate flag. We support Bubba in the fight against racism, and we support his advocacy for Black Lives Matter. Thank you, Bubba.

#CARBTE has some books to share with you so that you can adjust and re-envision your curriculum for next year. This is for teachers in k-12. https://t.co/7FEOAQpsPA

Read and share widely. @ncte

@nonithomaslopez @kwamealexander @MisterMinor @tiffanymjewell @pamallyn @Karyn_Parsons @ILAToday Such a great event! Thank you for giving me a toolbox for ways in which to address issues of equity in the context of the "smog" of racism.

[Tyler Faetz @FHSTyler]

What a powerful event today led by @ILAToday @AprilFPowers @kwamealexander and @MisterMinor entitled "How to raise and teach anti-racist kids." It will be archived on YouTube. So many takeaways! Personal, interpersonal, and systemic work to be done. #BLM #KidLit4BlackLives

As someone who has had to deconstruct years of bad theology pushed by mega churches I attended, here’s a prime example of how insane & dangerous some of this stuff is. What world do you live in to even suggest that white people should try & understand the “blessing of slavery?”

[Tyler Faetz @FHSTyler]

Thanks, #MLB. Looks like this is as close to baseball as we're going to get this season.

[Tyler Faetz @FHSTyler]

Let me get this straight: Ted Cruz defending the honor of Jim Jordan by challenging Ron Perlman to wrestle Jim Jordan. Does this not sound exactly like Ted Cruz? Please let's just cut Jim Jordan out and make this a Perlman/Cruz pay per view event.

[Ted Cruz @tedcruz]

Listen Hellboy. You talk good game when you’ve got Hollywood makeup & stuntmen. But I’ll bet $10k—to the nonpolitical charity of your choice—that you couldn’t last 5 min in the wrestling ring w/ @Jim_Jordan w/o getting pinned. You up for it? Or does your publicist say too risky?

[Tyler Faetz @FHSTyler]

So here's the thing: this feels exactly like Tucker Carlson excoriating Jon Stewart for Daily Show not being held to the same journalistic standards as other news outlets. Seriously? Trump's high ground on race is that he is better than a tasteless 30 year old comedy bit?

[Donald Trump Jr. @DonaldJTrumpJr]

Yikes!

So much has changed so quickly. And if any of you are confused or scared or angry—or just plain overwhelmed—I just want you to know that you aren’t alone. I am feeling all that, too. And I have a few things I want to say about it. https://t.co/kUZeBzC8xP

[Tyler Faetz @FHSTyler]

You can always be sure that Trump is lying when he inexplicably claims superlative status in the very areas where he is most incompetent. He suddenly becomes "the best" or "the smartest." What a little, little man. #dumptrump
