Saddened to hear of the passing of Mother Katherine Nichson at 105 years old. She was a faithful, longtime National Action Network member as well as a member of Mother AME Zion. She was a gallant warrior for justice who will be missed dearly. She fought many battles and never hesitated to stand up for what was right.
May she rest in peace.
Chadwick Boseman's brothers, Kevin and Derrick Boseman, have petitioned court to remove his widow, Taylor Simone Ledward Boseman, as administrator of his estate. The actor died without a will in 2020, and she was later appointed to manage the estate. His brothers allege she has mismanaged it and delayed distributing its assets nearly four years after a 2022 court order.
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.
73 years ago today, on June 18, 1953, my parents were married.
Here they are with our family on their wedding day. Their love and partnership helped shape a family and strengthen a movement. I honor the life they built together, the sacrifices they made, and the legacy of faith, courage, and commitment they left for us.
