This! Reggie Jackson share the true history!

[NAACP @NAACP]

We celebrate the life of a truly inspirational talent. The legacy will live on as new doors for Black actors and actresses are unlocked and new experiences are revealed for generations to come because of the example that was set by one.

Take your bow, Mary Alice.

Many will acknowledge your amazing accomplishments on the basketball court. But we will celebrate your fight on behalf of our community for civil rights and a brighter future.

Thank you, #BillRussell. Thank you for defending us. Thank you for fighting for us.

"This is a good thing, it's time," Andrew says before thanking Reynolds.

[Drake Law School @DrakeLawSchool]

@DrakeLawSchool Professors Emeriti Russell Lovell and David Walker worked with @NAACPIANE for many years to restore felon voting rights in Iowa. They were there yesterday when Gov. Kim Reynolds signed an executive order granting those rights. Read more: https://t.co/s163Ea1EGe
