As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family. https://t.co/km7RXnDKcW

At 11pm that night, she sent an urgent email to the head of the local council explaining all the ways they were failing in their duty to this woman and demanding to know how they would support her going forward. That’s somebody who cares about the safety of women and girls. 2/2

I once contacted @jessphillips out of the blue for advice about a woman I was trying to support who had fled domestic violence. I emailed her at 7pm on a Friday night not really expecting a response. 1/2
