Black Texas teen Darryl George continues to fight his school suspension months after he received an initial week-long suspension over his loc hairstyle. He asks a very important question that needs to be answered: "Why should I cut my hair for my education?"

Faisa Farole opened Washington’s first Black-owned birthing center! To address the disproportionately high maternal mortality rates among Black women, the center offers support to families throughout a pregnancy! https://t.co/dmLhrdmihL.

Black women are 3-4x more likely to die of pregnancy related causes than white women! A multitude of factors contribute to this stark reality — from inequalities in health care to implicit bias, Black mothers are dying! We MUST address this and protect our Black families!

On this day in 1914, Garrett T Morgan patented his invention, the Gas Mask. His invention saved countless lives.

He also invented the automated electric traffic light signals 🚦, an improved sewing machine and a hair-straightening product.

—Garrett Morgan was an inventor and businessman from Cleveland who invented a device called the Morgan safety hood and smoke protector in 1914. On July 25, 1916, Garrett Morgan made national news for using his gas mask to rescue 32 men trapped during an explosion in an underground tunnel 250 feet beneath Lake Erie. Morgan and a team of volunteers donned the new “gas masks” and went to the rescue. After the rescue, Morgan’s company received requests from fire departments around the country who wished to purchase the new masks. The Morgan gas mask was later refined for use by U.S. Army during World War I. In 1914, Garrett Morgan was awarded a patent for a Safety Hood and Smoke Protector. After witnessing a collision between an automobile and a horse-drawn carriage, Garrett Morgan took his turn at inventing a traffic signal. Other inventors had experimented with, marketed, and even patented traffic signals, however, Garrett Morgan was one of the first to apply for and acquire a U.S. patent for an inexpensive to produce traffic signal.

The Supreme Court’s disappointing decision in Sackett v. EPA will take our country backwards – placing our Nation’s wetlands, and the rivers, lakes, and ponds connected to them, at risk of pollution and destruction.

My team will work with the Department of Justice and relevant agencies to review this decision and use every legal authority we have to protect our nation’s waters for the people and communities that depend on them.

Our fight for clean water for all must go on, and it will.

25-yo Khalil Watson received his associate’s degree by walking across Reynolds Community College’s stage with the help of a robotic exoskeleton — almost 7 years after he was shot and left paralyzed. His determination to earn his degree and walk again is awe-inspiring! 🎓💪🏾 🎥: @CBS6

As a 12 year old, Edmond Albius, invented the technique that made the vanilla industry possible (still used today as nearly all vanilla is pollinated by hand). He revolutionized the cultivation of vanilla.

He made it possible for us to enjoy treats like Vanilla Ice Cream!
