"We went to Walmart today, and my nephew Lakken happens to see an elderly man that was having a hard time shopping and finding things due to him not being able to lift his head up and see straight.

He can see the ground and barely the sides of him, so that’s when my nephew Lakken looks at me and goes, ‘Aunt Ry can I please help him?’ I said, ‘Yes.’

My nephew went up to the man and asked him if he would like some help. His eyes lit up and said, ‘Well, yes that would be amazing young man, thank you so much.’ Lakken was running all over the place for this man and he was so happy.

The man told us he hasn’t had help in years, and he was so happy he ran into an amazing smart young man like Lakken!

I was so proud of him! Lakken went and helped him check out and bag his stuff as well and had them call the show bus. The man tried to tip Lakken and my nephew said, ‘Oh thank you but I don’t need this. I enjoyed helping you, you keep your money’. I’m beyond proud of my nephew Lakken.

You don’t see or get many people, let alone children, who do these things for people.”

Happy Birthday to Emmett Till. He would've been 82 years old today.

At just 14, two white men kidnapped and brutally murdered him through mutilation for 'whistling' at a white woman.
decades later, Carolyn Bryant admitted to lying that Emmett Till made a pass at her.

A journalist asked NZ Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern if she was meeting Finland's PM Sanna Marin because they were both "similar in age and got a lot of common stuff."

Her response is everything.

Happy 72nd birthday to Dr. Alexa Canady. She became the first black woman to become a neurosurgeon in 1981. She also co-invented a device to treat fluid buildup in the brain.
