Tonight, @NewsHour aired a brief clip from when the race was called in the building. Maxwell Alejandro Frost is Black and Afro-Cuban. I like to imagine that somewhere, somehow, Gwen Ifill was watching the show and thinking “hey, look at these kids.” 🙂
Last night, @MaxwellFrostFL’s team rented the Ren in Orlando for their election night event. Maxwell is 25 and would be the first of his generation in Congress
It’s especially important for MEN to speak out against abortion bans and in favor of abortion rights.
In Florida, abortion is still legal, but these rights are not guaranteed. We have to fight to defend them!
Mobilize, organize and with your vote YOU can have the final say.
@TheRenTheatre Subtwete by committee because yo, Orlando arts leaders, a few of you went out for cigarettes or something a decade ago and never came back. Every week there's a new crowd at the Ren and I go "these are our people!" It's their first time there and we haven't met. It's so cool.

If you want to catch up with projects, I'm very proud of @FromHereMusical and you can watch it on the site. Our next live theatre adventure is called @TheRenTheatre and it's going to be a big one. More news to share this summer!
California friends, I eventually landed safely in Orlando, and have been working on some art and music projects at non-profits here. I'm healthy and happy. I miss you all, and I hope y'all who made it through are doing better than ever.
Trying to work and I keep coming back to this.
I just wish Gwen Ifill were still here.
She would be the first to say she doesn't have the answers. But I know, I know she would be asking the right questions.
I miss you Gwen.

Here is most of the cast and crew of ‘From Here: 2020.’ Take care of yourselves (and maybe don’t get this close to each other for a while.) See you on the other side! We’re All From Here.
'From Here' is a masterclass production by @DonaldRupe w/fictional stories of how the lives of LGBTQ people and allies were changed and touched forever by @pulseorlando. Thanks to all who helped bring this musical story of life, love and tragedy to life. https://t.co/vZMhsDwVVo
