Toni Morrison reshaped literature with stories that illuminated history, identity, and the depth of the human experience. Through her powerful words, she gave voice to stories, particularly about Black people, that are too often overlooked, and challenged the world to see more clearly and more truthfully.

During Women’s History Month, we honor her brilliance, her courage, and the enduring impact of her voice.

RIP 💔 The world just lost the mathematical genius behind GPS technology.

Gladys West, the mathematical titan who developed the essential foundation for GPS, has died at the age of 95.

Born in 1930 in rural Virginia, West spent her childhood picking crops before a scholarship to Virginia State College launched her into a 42-year career with the U.S. Navy.

As one of only four Black professionals at the Naval Proving Ground in 1956, she worked in quiet brilliance to solve the complex algorithms that account for the Earth's gravitational irregularities. Her calculations were not just academic exercises; they were the indispensable building blocks for the satellite navigation system that billions of people rely on today for everything from global shipping and aviation to daily commutes and smartphone apps.

For decades, West’s monumental contributions remained a "hidden" chapter of American history, recognized only late in her life through inductions into the U.S. Air Force Hall of Fame and the prestigious Prince Philip Medal. Her legacy is one of profound perseverance, having navigated the systemic barriers of the Jim Crow South to redefine how we perceive and navigate our planet. Though her work powers the digital maps on every smartphone, she famously retained a personal preference for paper maps, a humble nod to her roots and the physical world she spent a lifetime mapping. West passed away peacefully surrounded by family, leaving behind a world that is infinitely more connected and precise because of her brilliant mind.

As part of the 2026 MLK Jr. Beloved Community Awards, I look forward to honoring Viola Davis with the Coretta Scott King Soul of the Nation Award.

Her work continues to call us toward truth, dignity, and love in action.

Chicago is where Michelle was raised, where I got my start as an organizer, and where we built a family together. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next June, it will be our way to give back to a city that has given us so much.

Unlike Admiral Bradley, Navy Admiral Alvin Holsey resigned and refused to go along with Pete Hegseth's illegal orders.

RETWEET to thank Admiral Holsey for standing up for the Constitution!

Daddy, in your last speech, ‘I’ve Been to the Mountaintop,’ you said, “We’ve got some difficult days ahead.” Here we are. And we won’t give in to hopelessness and pessimism.

To those attacking #Justice #KetanjiBrownJackson, let’s set the record straight.

Justice Jackson didn’t vote against #SNAP—she issued a temporary stay to let the appeals process work. That’s not defunding, it’s due process. Her move protects long-term benefits by ensuring legal decisions aren’t rushed or reversed. She’s upholding the Constitution, not playing politics. Mic dropped.

Wangari Maathai was the first female professor in Kenya and the first African woman to be awarded the #NobelPeacePrize. She founded the Green Belt Movement, which led to the planting of millions of trees.

Today we announce the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize.

Black people in America are not "making everything about race." We live in a nation that is erasing evidence of our history, celebrating a man who demeaned and maligned us, polluting our neighborhoods with toxins, ending lifesaving services to our communities, and suppressing our votes.

The United States of America has been consistently culpable in "making everything about race."

It's beyond time to end anti-Black racism.
Join in doing that.

Did you know that Crest Toothpaste, Folgers Coffee, Bounce Fabric Softener and Safeguard Soap were all created by a black man?

BREAKING: Trump has ordered the removal of information on slavery at multiple national parks in an effort to scrub them of “corrosive ideology.

This famous photo is one of them.

Please paste this image everywhere. Don't let them erase history.

Information at the President’s House Site in Philadelphia, where George Washington kept slaves is also being removed.

Representation matters! When our children see educators who look like them, believe in them, and pour into them, it changes lives. Shoutout to these brothers from Charles R. Drew High School who show up for their students!

Black men make up less than 1.6% of all teachers in America… but at Charles R. Drew High School, they are seen EVERYWHERE! He got to dap up, hug, and shake hands with over 30 Black male educators!

@AngelaPaxtonTX For the ones saying there is no biblical grounds. But this isn't our business.

[Dr. Angeline Williams-Jackson,EdD(she/her) @awilljack]

@AngelaPaxtonTX Matthew 5:32 and 19:9 that divorce is permissible in cases of sexual immorality.

1 Corinthians 7:15 indicates that if a non-believing spouse chooses to leave the marriage, the believing spouse is not bound to the relationship and can seek a divorce.
