Thanks friend Corey Williams for the @AP obit on my friend Marlene Johnson. It's poetic that AP publish the obit on the Black journalist who sued them for discrimination that led to them to hire more woman, Black and Hispanic journalists.

It happened again.

Another Black woman journalist asked tough, necessary questions of Donald Trump and was met with disrespect instead of answers.

Black women journalists are doing their jobs with professionalism, preparation and integrity.

Wishing @NABJ a blessed 50th birthday. I've been a proud member since 1981.

Today marks 50 years of NABJ, half a century of insisting on our right to be seen, heard, and valued in American media. When our founders came together on December 12, 1975, they weren’t simply forming an organization. They were launching a movement.

A ❤️ thanks to @Newsgirl84, my "buyout buddy," who finally convinced me to go do something for my birthday, which was Aug. 23. She got me out Sunday to see "Highest 2 Lowest" at the @EmagineTheatres Palladium followed by dinner outside at @TerraBham in Birmingham, MI
