New on https://t.co/m3HDzJt5Zt! I’m reflecting on rediscovery while working on my memoir, from lost interviews to powerful images. Plus, celebrating my dear friend, poet & activist Sonia Sanchez, as she approaches 90. Sharing moments from our 1974 interview. #SoniaSanchez#Memoir
Thank you #PhilDonahue for your show, for what you showed us all as a man of character and generosity. As a talk show host on radio and TV for decades, let's just say: I couldn't have done it without you. Condolences to your family. May your memory bring them comfort.
#RIP

Op-eds and essays are big ideas in-and-of themselves; but sometimes, those ideas need bigger packages–more words, more space, more room to grow. Drawing on their prolific experience as columnists, essayists, editors, and authors, @micheleweldon and @meganstielstra (@TheOpEdProject leaders), will discuss the path, process, and strategies of expanding short-form pieces into long-form manuscripts.
Join us on Tuesday, July 30 at 7:00 pm ET: https://t.co/gH2ZjJ8r9h

In the 1920s, Alphonso Sr. and Cressie Sanders Roach left the South for a better life in NYC. Despite losing their first son, they nurtured their second, Max Roach, a musical prodigy. On Juneteenth 2024, NYC honored Max with "Max Roach Way."
@skfl@NYCMayor Hello. On behalf of our family, thanks for mentioning this. There is such a place -- though not in NYC. THE MAX ROACH PAPERS collection at the Library of Congress houses Max' original papers, archival photos, original recordings and other memorabilia: https://t.co/f0UAeOtUZU

History isn't always a straight path; it's often a series of steps forward and backward. Let's acknowledge the truth and strive for real progress. #History#Progress#Truth#Equality#Change https://t.co/HXdymmtzIW
In a world where shadows often seem overwhelming, let's remember the power of light and love.
It’s easy to get lost in frustration and anger, but true change begins with a spark of compassion.
Let’s be that spark.
