Today, we celebrate what would have been Breonna Taylor’s 33rd birthday. Breonna should be here enjoying life, pursuing her dreams, and celebrating with loved ones.

We honor her memory by continuing the fight for justice and accountability in policing.

Rest in Power, Jade Aniya Callwood 💔🕊️
This radiant, brilliant HBCU senior at Tuskegee University was taken far too soon, leaving her family, friends, and the entire Golden Tiger family in complete shock.
Jade, a 21-year-old shining light from Conyers, Georgia, was a dedicated senior majoring in Environmental, Resources and Plant Sciences on track to graduate this May. Known for her infectious smile, sharp mind, and vibrant spirit that lit up every room she entered, Jade embodied excellence, passion, and purpose.
From graduating Heritage High School in 2022 to thriving on campus and making her mark in the College of Agriculture, Environment and Nutrition Sciences, she was building a legacy rooted in service and impact.
May her memory continue to inspire every young scholar chasing their dreams at an HBCU and beyond.
Rest easy, Queen. Your light will never fade, you will be remembered, celebrated, and carried forward always. 👏🏾
@CliffW08950229 Saved the Kennedy Center's legacy? Aren't we being a tad dramatic? It was a stupid thing for Trump to add his name to the place. He's still renovating the dump.
