In 1957 white segregationists in Nashville literally bombed Hattie Cotton Elementary School (a white school) because the school was integrated by a 6yo Black girl. 📢They bombed their own children's school📢

Black folk have been woke since 1619 for survival.

I am listening to Christmas music as I finish my chores for the evening. How can I move to the rhythm and literally be crying at the same time? Holding so much grief for the loss of my sister to breast cancer and so much pain for the world, yet I am reminded love will prevail.🙏🏽

An amazing experience! I cannot wait to partner more. The elders said- See Us! We are strong. We are contributors to the well-being of our society. We are still creating. We are a part of the Afro-future, not only the past.

[Rev. Dr. Starsky Wilson @RevDrStarsky]

With increasing diversity ‘affirmative action’ is more important than ever. #SCOTUS has made clear that the responsibility is ours. We must take affirmative, assertive, & aggressive action to build a nation where all people thrive. @ChildDefender https://t.co/QVOw1khMWr

NASA announced that crew member Christina Koch will be the first female astronaut to land on the moon.

Two occupational therapists, Beth Roros & Sasha-Gay Steward, helped build an injury prevention program for the team who created the first female-specific space suit! #OTMonth

It was so good to be with you and to be reminded of our “why”. Remembering allows us to keep the main thing, the main thing. Thank you for you support ♥️♥️

It is not lost on me- that my presidency of the National Black OT Caucus began with work around the killing of George Floyd and is ending with the shooting of #RalphYarl. The AOTA Conference is literally in KC Mo this week. I have to get my heart prepped to enter this space AGAIN
