Germany doesn’t have Nazi monuments to “remind” citizens of their history. Instead, they have memorials for the 6 million Jews and others who were murdered.
The U.S. doesn’t need statues of confederate generals to “remind” us. We need monuments for Nat Turner & Harriet Tubman.

Let’s change the world together ❤️
Some states, like Montana and Nebraska, are getting more than $300,000 in federal stimulus money per reported COVID-19 case.
New York is the hardest-hit state and yet we are getting only about $12,000 per case.
We need a fair federal stimulus bill that is distributed by need.
Bravo to my friends at @nts_contractors who have sourced and distributed over 12,000 surgical-style masks to hospitals and health care facilities throughout NYC. Help them raise funds for more masks to keep these heroes safe as they serve those in need: https://t.co/kcRx82eQo9
Ayy! @brooksrunning coming through with the official, “Bourbon IS whiskey, Larry” tee. NEED one? Super simple, just give this a ReTweet and make sure you’re following me. I’ll pick 50 random winners on 2/20 and slide all the details into the DMs.
Cheers 🥃! #runhappy
After Parkland I went to the White House and sat across the table from President Trump to make the case for strong gun laws. I kept track. Nine times he said he wanted universal background checks. Nine times. Then the next day he met with the NRA and folded. No more folding.

Okay running community, let's do this for her with @chipgaines and support @bravelikegabe & @StJude. https://t.co/yR3zuGAJ24
It always shocks me that when we talk about inclusion, disability is often missed. This is so surprising because disability spans across ALL CULTURES and subcultures.Let’s make this world a little bit of a better place and begin by talking about it like a social norm.
As the year winds down and we look toward 2019, I’m asking you to make a commitment: find something you want to change in your community and take the first step toward changing it. If you need some inspiration, take a look at some of the young leaders who inspired me this year.
.@ShalaneFlanagan has been blazing the trail for US distance running for years, as an athlete and a role model. It’s an honor to be mentioned alongside her, and as usual @Bonnie_D_Ford tells our stories like nobody else can. ‘Real recognize real’ has never seemed more applicable.
