@MaddixLatresha Ignorance is excusable because one simply doesn't know. Our responsibility is to the future. Otherwise, we shall continue repeating the same disparities. Let's connect! https://t.co/gEI5QsbscQ #AFRusa21
@kemjacks Put it like this:
No one ever forgets 9/11 when it comes around. How many of us know the date of Bloody Sunday? Do we commemorate that day and what it meant? There is a lack of a lense on that particular area unless its tied to celebrity or an anniversary.

@jdl1823, you can start right here in #MobileAL. Our jail is 30% over capacity. Most arrests stem from racially biased traffic stops. & too often, people sit in jail because the City can't try the case! I would love to discuss this more with you! #AFRusa21
@tootiefugly, what is the difference between now & then? Why are people of color more detached from the #PoliticalProcess these days? Is there anything we can do to get people more involved? #AFRusa21
I think values play a important role in how we see The events in Selma and in the US as a whole the idea that every black man and white man are created equal under the law and in the eyes of God.#AFRusa21
Thanks for sharing Dr. Jackson (@kernjacks)! These conversations are truly needed. I like how you meet your students where they are, utilizing this #SocialMedia platform! #Kudos#AFRusa21
@cadenw2122 @kemjacks @cadenw2122, when you examine #Alabama & #America today, do you believe their efforts were for not? Are we righteously preserving what they sacrificed everything for or is it just a #HistoryLesson these days? #AFRusa21
@erikarschoemehl, #Alabama has always been at the forefront of #AmericanHistory. From the Civil War 'til Civil Rights & beyond! Why do you believe so much information is hidden from the public? #AFRusa21
@Mld2124Dunnigan, I like your enthusiasm! Tell me, though, what rights should we fight for and value most, today? And, how do we get 18-25yo more engaged with these issues that matter? #AFRusa21
Interesting perspective, @MabienAlondra! Do you believe the commercialization of organizations like #BLM has hindered us from the necessary progress to actually eradicate the concerns we see in the #BlackCommunity? #AFRusa21
@cierrahedrick_ - the question becomes: how long will we allow the unjust sentiments of the past to remain relevant in our present age of #HumanEndeavor? Also, what would cause us to finally say enough is enough? #AFRusa21
