There has been a lot of coverage about Spirit Airlines closing abruptly, flights being canceled, passengers being stranded, and travel plans being disrupted.

Those things matter. But for many passengers, the inconvenience will be temporary.

What we cannot move past are the approximately 17,000 workers who are now facing the loss of income, benefits, stability, and the ability to provide for themselves and their families.

Behind every corporate headline are human beings. Parents. Caregivers. Workers who gave years of their lives. People now asking, “What do I do now?”

The Beloved Community calls us to see them. Not as numbers. Not as collateral damage. Not as people to be forgotten once the news cycle moves on.

My prayers are with the Spirit employees, contractors, and families navigating this painful uncertainty.

May they receive support, opportunity, and the dignity every worker deserves.

Even in a time marked by deep distrust, I believe what my parents taught remains true: when people come together to stand for justice, righteousness, and freedom, there is nothing we cannot accomplish. This is the work and the hope we must hold onto. #MLKDay2026

On this day in 1988, Michael Jackson released #ManInTheMirror! It’s almost impossible to find anyone in the world who does not know the melody, and (close to) the words, of this nearly 40-yr old song. Thank you #MJ!

Top five issues for Virginia voters in this election: economy (47%), health care (21%), immigration (12%), education (10%), crime (6%).

Transgender rights didn't make the cut.

Today should have been Breonna Taylor’s 32nd birthday.

We remember her.
We honor her.
We hold space for her light.
We continue to demand justice in her name.

🧵It wasn’t that long ago.

On the 57th anniversary of the day he was assassinated…here are some in-color photos of my father. 🖤

This isn’t the anniversary of “the day we lost King.” This is the day, 57 years ago, that you were murdered in the midst of a courageous, strategic work to eradicate poverty, racism, and militarism. Today, many try to strengthen their own unjust stances by misusing your words; others erroneously declare that your nonviolent mindset and methods are not strong enough.

Today, I believe that your mindset and methods for social change are more relevant and necessary than ever. Today, you still inspire me to hope and to help humans be more humane.

Today, Daddy, I miss you.
