Colin Kaepernick and @yourrightscamp answered this family's call when they needed it most by helping fund an independent autopsy for Nolan Wells. Thank you, Colin for standing with this grieving family in their pursuit of answers. 🙏🏿 https://t.co/RMZBi5EaNn
We love a full circle moment 🥹
Lauryn Hill sang about the industry pressure she faced during her first pregnancy in her 1998 song, 'To Zion'.
28 years later, her son, Zion Marley, surprised her on stage with his single 'Marching', inspired by the song she dedicated to him. 🤎

LeBron James was nothing short of spectacular scoring 11 straight points in the 4th quarter (including three straight 3-pointers) and had 29 total points tonight to defeat the Philadelphia 76ers 112-108! The NBA’s leading candidate for MVP, Luka Doncic, had a triple double with 31 points, 15 rebounds and 11 assists! The Lakers are the most entertaining team in the NBA right now. Luka, LeBron, and Austin Reaves put on a show for the world to see and they had the crowd going crazy with “oohs” and “ahhs” !!

D’Angelo was one of a kind. As a pioneer in neo-soul, he inspired a generation of singers, and helped shape music today. Michelle and I are thinking of his family, and all those who loved and admired him. https://t.co/Y97bD9O0E2
Today marks 12 years since I lost my son, Jordan.
12 years since my world came crashing down.
Like so many families in our nation, I found the strength to continue on and pursue common-sense gun laws in America. (1/3)
I’ve spent the last 12 Thanksgivings without my son Jordan.
Because on this day in 2012, Jordan was shot and killed while “playing loud music.”
Gun violence survivors know the pain of losing a loved one never leaves you - especially over the holidays. So as I spend time this holiday season with my family, I always write a letter to Jordan.
I write about how the bond a mother has for her child never leaves her, the strength I’ve found in our relationship, and to comfort others experiencing pain over the holidays:
Dear Jordan,
By now, you’d be 29 years old.
You deserved better than this. You deserved to come home this Thanksgiving, to fill up your plate, and to tell us what’s new in life.
By now, maybe you’d even bring home a girlfriend or someone to introduce to the family.
But that wasn’t what happened.
You were ripped away from us.
A man, emboldened by reckless gun laws, believed your life to be less valuable than his unchecked rage - a devastating consequence of a broken system.
I promised that I would do everything in my power to prevent our tragedy from happening to any other family.
I shared our story to anyone who would listen.
And when I ran for Congress - you were right there with me at every step. Every time someone told us we couldn’t win, the time wasn’t right, or that we should wait our turn.
We made history.
Because of the power of our story - of your story - this year we’ve spoken on stages we previously never thought possible.
We’ve been made a target of those trying to tear us down over and over again.
But the worst thing in my life that could possibly happen to me already has.
So I refuse to be silent.
Jordan, I love you. One day, I’ll see you again, but until then, God’s not through with us yet. ❤️
Your mom,
Lucy
I have a heart that’s beating, but broken.
I have a mind that’s full of beautiful memories, drowning in sadness.
I’m a writer fighting to find the words.
I know that death is a part of life, but watching so many of the people who have inspired me—who made me smile, laugh, dream, and hope—leave this planet is really putting me in a difficult place.
I was so honored to have known you, Q, and to dedicate a soundstage to you. You not only brought music and light, but you also shared so much of your wisdom with me. I’m going to miss you, my friend. Sending prayers to all your family
Happy 100th birthday, President Carter! Thank you for your friendship, your fundamental decency, and your incredible acts of service through the @CarterCenter. Michelle and I are grateful for all you’ve done for this country.
