On Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave men and women in uniform who gave their lives for this country that we love. It is a debt we can never fully repay, but we must never stop trying. I’ll always be grateful to our fallen heroes and their families, whose sacrifice reminds us of what it means to live for something greater than ourselves.

John Lewis was my parishioner.

He had no reason to think that he would win when he was crossing the Edmund Pettus bridge.

But he just kept walking.

We must keep walking.

INCREDIBLE!

Washington Post journalist Hannah Natanson who had Trump’s FBI raid her home and take her phones and laptops, just won the Pulitzer Prize with the Washington Post.

Congrats!!

Although we don’t yet have the details about the motives behind last night's shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner, it’s incumbent upon all us to reject the idea that violence has any place in our democracy. It’s also a sobering reminder of the courage and sacrifice that U.S. Secret Service Agents show every day. I’m grateful to them – and thankful that the agent who was shot is going to be okay.

During the first airing of my Star Trek series where a kiss was objectionable; many southern stations pulled the episode & condemned the show. Using today’s vernacular it would absolutely be called“woke DEI crap”because it went against “norms” of society for its time. Not a lot seems to have changed.🤷🏼😑

@sethmoulton @ClyburnSC06 This is not completely true - many former soldiers were denied the use of their ability to use these tools to purchase homes through bad faith individuals that either slow rolled or did not submit the applications that were submitted.

Minnijean Brown-Trickey is one of the original members of the Little Rock Nine, the teenagers who integrated Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas, after the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education ruling. Now in her 80s, she visits schools and community centers to deliver living history lessons.

"What makes me interested in interacting with young people is because I know who I was, and I value that in young people," Brown-Trickey told us for #BriefButSpectacular.

"I just want them to know that they are capable of so much and that they don't have to tolerate things the way they are."

GPS pioneer and mathematician Gladys West has died. She was 95.

Her calculations helped produce extremely accurate modeling of the Earth's shape, laying the foundation for modern global positioning system technology.

West was born in rural Virginia during segregation. In 1956, she was hired as a computer programmer at a Navy base in Virginia, where she was one of only four Black employees.

Her work went largely unrecognized for years, though she was later acknowledged as one of the hidden figures of the era.

Despite being considered the mother of GPS, West said she still preferred using a paper map when driving.

Don Cornelius understood the importance of both representation and documentation. Through #SoulTrain, he didn’t just showcase our culture, he preserved it in more ways than one. His legacy is a reminder of the power we, the people, hold & how vital our presence is to the heartbeat of the world. #LongLiveTheCulture ✊🏾
