11 years ago today, nine Black lives were taken at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina. They were not strangers. They were pastors, teachers, librarians, coaches, and community pillars who opened their doors to someone who came in hate and left with nine souls.

Rev. Clementa C. Pinckney. Cynthia Graham Hurd. Susie Jackson. Ethel Lee Lance. DePayne Middleton-Doctor. Tywanza Sanders. Rev. Daniel L. Simmons Sr. Rev. Sharonda Coleman-Singleton. Myra Thompson.

They came to study the Word. They were murdered for being Black.

Our culture feeds the world. Our music, our style, our faith, our resilience adopted and celebrated everywhere by everyone. And still, we are hunted in our own sanctuaries. That is not a coincidence. It is a pattern. And it is the very thing we stand on the front line to dismantle every single day.

Nine souls. One act of pure hate. An entire nation changed forever.

We will never forget the Emanuel 9. When we say their names, we declare that their lives mattered and that this fight is far from over.

HEARTBREAKING: Sean Taylor fought off five intruders with a machete to protect his fiancée and infant daughter after being shot.

An officer said: “I’ve never seen a man fight for his life as hard as he did”

Sean gave everything to protect his family.

A 1-year-old child is dead after police officers in Mississippi opened fire on a vehicle in a crowded Walmart parking lot in Senatobia. His mother, who has not been charged with any crime, says she was trying to communicate to officers that there was a baby in the car. They fired anyway, leading to the death of an innocent 1-year-old. We intend to seek justice for baby Kohen and the life that was stolen from him.

A burning cross is not a prank. It is not a misunderstanding. It is one of the most recognizable symbols of racial terror in American history. For generations, burning crosses were used to intimidate, threaten, and instill fear in Black communities. Seeing one set ablaze in a public park in 2026 is disturbing and unacceptable. Hate cannot be normalized, excused, or ignored. Those responsible must be identified and held accountable.

Throughout her life Dee and her husband Ossie were on the frontlines of the Civil Rights Movement, raising money for movements, working closely with figures like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, and enduring FBI surveillance for their radical activism.

Give me Willis McGahee highlights all day. One of my all time favorite players at Miami. In '02 he ran for over 1700yds, 28 TDs, and finished 4th in Heisman voting. Drafted 23rd overall to the Bills. Played 10 years in the NFL and ran for 8,474yds for his career. All-time Cane.

JOE NAMATH "RETIRES"

Less than five months after his team's shocking upset of the Colts in Super Bowl III, and facing a suspension stemming from an FBI investigation into gambling and criminal activity at his NYC restaurant/bar — Bachelors III, #Jets quarterback Joe Namath refuses to sell his stake in the restaurant and tearily "retires" from pro football.

#NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle had given Namath 24 hours to sell his stake in Bachelors III or face an immediate suspension. Namath refused.

Flanked by Pat Summerall, Frank Gifford, Kyle Rote, and Howard Cosell, Joe announces his sudden retirement in a press conference.

Namath would eventually divest himself of his stake in the club and "unretire" six weeks later.

I had the privilege of working with Peabo Bryson on the @somma.cruise last year. One evening, I noticed him sitting alone on the deck, so I joined him. We ended up talking for hours.

He shared incredible stories, spoke passionately about his music, and had such a deep love for his craft. I am so grateful to have had that special moment with him.

To his beautiful wife, son, and entire family, please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Peabo’s legacy will live on forever through his timeless music and the countless lives he touched. My deepest condolences to everyone who loved him.
