More than 40 years ago, I arrived in Chicago in search of an idea. I was a young man looking for purpose, who believed deeply in America, was inspired by the Civil Rights Movement, and wanted to be a part of something larger. The America I believed in was one where everyone has opportunity, everyone is seen, everyone belongs—because that was an America that had a place for me, too.
I’m sorry but a Yankee’s moment of silence for a right wing influencer is not appropriate. Neither is his body being flown on Air Force 2, flags at half-mast nor a presidential medal of freedom.
Debate me.
@devvidev_ Thank you dev! She was recommended to me by my coworker who also worked in her office & knew I wanted a black therapist . Check out this site tho https://t.co/z29cqcpsj1 &
Text me if you have questions or need help
Quick story time ! So, yesterday I shared with my therapist that I had launched my site . She asked if she could check it out , so I shared the link with her.
@loveflowe Thank you !! I’m excited to do the work❤️ & I thought about you yesterday while watching some harambees on YouTube lol. One of my goals is to get a freedom school in my area
What she said in that moment meant more than any “professional” comment ever would have. She affirmed me not as her client but as a sister in society . She literally gassed me up & because I know who she is (cuz she’s really THAT girl) it just.. AHHHH. It gave what it needed to.
