@curlyfro : Your story about Willie Thrower, the very first Black QB of the NFL and former Bears player, is so awesome! I'm wondering why @ChicagoBears hasn't yet agreed to attend the Oct. 12 celebration honoring Mr. Thrower. It's indeed an honor to even get an invitation.

October 18, 1953: Willie Thrower makes his debut at Wrigley Field for the Chicago Bears becoming the first Black QB of the modern NFL.

for much of his life, most didn’t believe him. 70 years later, his family hopes for recognition.

The Supreme Court's decision today on Affirmative Action is a major setback for racial justice and diversity initiatives. I would not have had the education and career opportunities I've had without affirmative action. What a sad day in America. https://t.co/6fT1Si0eBK

@BarackObama @POTUS Thank God for the Affordable Care Act. It's made a difference in my life too. Would not be able to afford health care without it.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

To celebrate the 13th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act, @POTUS and I surprised some folks whose lives have been changed by the law.

Paul, Mukta, and Sarah — thank you for sharing your powerful stories with us.
