50 years ago Black Panther Party member #FredHampton was murdered by the Chicago Police Department. Years later I watched filmmaker Mike Gray's doc, The Murder of Fred Hampton, and it set me on a path to become the filmmaker I am today. @panthersdoc youtube.com/watch?v=U5PlOs…

Son of sharecroppers. Howard graduate. Attorney. Legislator. None of these labels adequately describe this giant of a man who made us all so proud. I was honored that he joined us for our screening of BOSS at the @NMAAHC earlier this year. Rest in peace, Elijah Cummings.

@TheBlackCaucus Thank you! This was a work of love. I just wanted to get the support that Tearah needed. @Hooliana I’m particularly grateful to you & @frontlinepbs & @firelightmedia for ensuring this narrative has become a more open conversation with regard to mental health awareness.

These HBCUs didn’t just preserve scholarship around black life. They taught it to black students. And in passing along that knowledge, those colleges passed on cultural pride. And black history museums have served a role in this as well. edsurge.com/news/2019-09-1…
