Before you begin your thinkpiece, the Supreme Court DID NOT strike down Affirmative Action

Admission preferences for legacies, donors, employee families and special recommendations are still allowed

The Court struck down Affirmative Action For everyone except WHITE PEOPLE

This is every bit as great as I hoped it would be. Easily the deepest look at BIG that I’ve seen, especially how his style came to be.

My first trip into the field in a long time: a rainy day in Brooklyn to a beautiful parsonage in Crown Heights. Thanks to Pastor @LawrenceAker (who took this photo), @DBaird13, and the whole @BlocPower
team. Listen here: https://t.co/QJVjQylwZP

Black people stop efforts to suppress your vote. Download “TurnoutSunday Voting During COVID Mini-Toolkit” https://t.co/Vgmv8FRD6p. Vote 4 leaders addressing evictions; police violence, health @jamalhbryant @fhunscripted @DeeCMarshall @joshuadubois @ZinaCPierre @mckinleyrevtm

This is what courageous truth sounds like! White America look in this mirror so we won’t go back to “normal” after this is over! Normal is why Black people are dying disproportionately from covid19! Normal is why “we ain’t in this together!”

[Andy Stanley @AndyStanley]

I’ve been advised not to post about the murder of Ahmaud Arbery until I calm down a bit. But that’s part of the problem, isn’t it? We calm down and go on about our business. This must end. Our black brothers and sisters need white advocates to bring this to an end. Count me in!

https://t.co/EQC4Uad0a6 This prophetic warrior and relentless social justice activist relentlessly fought in the Second American Revolution (Civil Rights movement) and never took his eyes off the prize! Rest in Power!

[Michael Eric Dyson @MichaelEDyson]

American History books often neglect to mention the contributions of Blacks in America. Please take a moment today to memorialize the generations before us who sacrificed their lives for our freedom. Rewrite the narrative to include #ourblackhistory in the story of #MemorialDay.

@CTmagazine The church I grew up encouraged us to strive for excellence through faith and education. This was reinforced at home as well. #WorkingClassGospel
