[The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center @TheKingCenter]

#TheKingCenter remembers #MalcolmX [El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz] on his 101st birthday. He’s often and intentionally misunderstood and maligned. But Brother Malcolm was a giant of a man, a mystery only to those who don’t really want a sincere look at his heart, history, and hunger for freedom. #MalcolmX101 #Malcolm101

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

The decisions made by state supreme courts touch every part of our lives. And that’s especially important when voting rights and basic freedoms are being challenged.

Today, voters in Georgia can stand up for fairness and integrity by electing Miracle Rankin and Jen Jordan to Georgia’s Supreme Court.

Let’s get this one right, Georgia. Find your nearest polling station and cast your ballot before 7pm ET:  https://t.co/OHJnsHnuiB

[Portia Prescott @PortiaColorado]

It makes ZERO sense for talented Black athletes to play football in places like Alabama or Mississippi and Republicans don't want them voting or holding elected seats in their states. They can feel free to come & play for the CU Buffs! ALL voters welcome in Colorado! #primetime

[AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY @AfricanArchives]

“It took many years of vomiting up all the filth I'd been taught about myself, and half-believed, before I was able to walk on the Earth as though I had a right to be here."

—James Baldwin

Staying fit after 50 can be such a bear! Let’s see what I look like after I reach the club 100 status! Also, hope to be fit enough this round to hit some of my favorite trails in Utah this summer @ZionNPS! #summer

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Virginia, if you haven’t done it already, make a plan to vote YES on the redistricting referendum.

You can vote early by April 18 or on Election Day, April 21. Find your polling place at https://t.co/vsawTNnoax.

Want to get Americans off SNAP? If the minimum wage had kept up with inflation and productivity, it would be $26 an hour, and that alone would lift 23 million workers off food stamps overnight.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

Insulin should be free.

[The Associated Press @AP]

BREAKING: Israel strikes southern Gaza in test of ceasefire. https://t.co/G16Jdi7AmW

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

What an abhorrent headline.

Israel broke the ceasefire. That’s what happened.

[Realistic Poetry International @RealisticPoetry]

Have a poetic day!

Members of Congress are still being paid, by the way.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

[Governor Gavin Newsom @CAgovernor]

A coordinated effort to silence critics and free speech.

Must be a coincidence.

[Mayor Karen Bass @MayorOfLA]

My office just received word that the 9th Circuit ruled in favor of Angelenos. The Temporary Restraining Order to stop unconstitutional and reckless raids has been upheld.

This is a victory for Los Angeles — I will ALWAYS fight for our city.
