South Carolina coach Dawn Staley on player development: "I probably have lost recruits because I've never told anybody you're absolutely going to start. Young people need to bet on themselves. If you're that good, you don't need a handout ... Production matters"

[Chaz R Frazier @Chazf_tv]

"It happened to us last year. Everything was about Caitlin Clark and her legacy... I want the sentiments to be about our players and what our players have been able to do. Equally."

Dawn Staley when asked about Paige Bueckers and her legacy in college with or without winning a title.

Staley gave high praise, but also wants the #Gamecocks and their accomplishments to be amplified equally during #MarchMadness

Dawn Staley on the legacy she hopes to leave: “My mother grew up in South Carolina. This was the 1940s and early ’50s. Segregation was still legal. Separate bathrooms. All of it. She left the South at the age of 13, seeking equality and opportunity. I think about her a lot … I think about what she made possible for me and maybe what I’m supposed to make possible for others. She left South Carolina because of the racial divide. I came back with a hope to bridge it.

I also know what me coaching here symbolizes in light of history. When I walk around different neighborhoods in this city, I’ll hear Black people say, “I had never been on that campus before coming to your game.” I understand that my success isn’t about championships — it’s about bringing together people who were once, and in some ways still are, divided. It’s bigger than basketball.

If I never won another championship but my legacy was that — to have changed the face of opportunity and united communities — I’d take that over most other things in this world.” #BlackHistoryMonth https://t.co/yERt6HgnzX

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

I don’t deny the power of my father’s most well-known speech, ‘I Have a Dream.’

However, its power and popularity (with focus on its conclusion) have been misused to weaken its clear messaging about ending racism, stopping police brutality, ensuring voting rights, and eradicating economic injustice.

Why didn’t Pastor Lorenzo Sewell pray these parts of the Dream during President Trump’s Inauguration?

Because the inconvenient truth (that disallows embracing the pipe dream that racism no longer exists in this country) is that Project 2025 and some of the plans that his voters encouraged POTUS to roll out on day one are reflective of an ‘America’ that denies the comprehensive King.

That’s why those who quote Daddy out of context and without the spirit of nonviolence don’t pray using my father’s ’The Other America,’ ‘The Three Evils of Society, ‘Beyond Vietnam’…or ‘Letter from Birmingham Jail.’

It’s simpler to distort the rousing conclusion of #IHaveADream and twist it to push a narrative that authentic, compassionate work to prevent and stop discrimination is actually discriminatory.

It is much harder to distort #LetterFromBirminghamJail’s call to conscience to #Christians and its powerfully relevant teaching on nonviolent direct action, injustice anywhere, devotion to order over justice, doing what’s right, and disobeying unjust laws.

Who can validate inhumane legislation by integrating prayers about civil disobedience and freedom being demanded by the oppressed, both topics covered in LFBJ?

We need to get Daddy’s Dream right, while also realizing that, in his other speeches, sermons, and writings, including LFBJ, he provides the love-centered strategy and courageous path for realizing his Dream.

And we haven’t collectively embraced that strategy or started on that path. In fact, several of the Executive Orders rescinded by President Trump this week blatantly disregard both the strategy and the path.

So keep praying…but don’t pray the Dream in pursuit of false peace, which cries for unity while decrying inclusive and equitable policies and practices.

Pray the Dream in tandem with work for true peace, which, as my father said, is the presence of justice.

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

Over the past six years, the parents of school shooting victims opened their doors to CBS News’ Steve Hartman and photographer Lou Bopp, inviting them to see what it’s like to live alongside their children’s bedrooms, just as they left them. https://t.co/2K0LdBYh9P

BREAKING: Republican Governor of South Carolina, Henry McMaster, just personally fact checked Donald Trump’s claims that FEMA aid was not getting to residents. Retweet to make sure all Americans see this incredible praise of the Biden-Harris Administration
