I am very excited to announce that The Bill Russell 6 Foundation is officially up and running! Our mission is to honor and build the legacy of my husband Bill Russell by championing equity, empowerment, and opportunity for all. For more info and to donate, visit the link in bio.

Sad to lose another great champion for justice. Rest in Power Rev Jesse Jackson. Your presence will be greatly missed Always good to catch up at All-Star games.

Always protesting with that special kind of humor ! #NoKingsInAmerica #NoKingsProtest

Days like this are difficult yet bittersweet. Seeing all of the hard work the Governor, the Mayor and myself did in getting the bridge dedicated to Bill makes it all worth it. I think he would be proud. Thank you Boston. -Mrs. Russell

I dread this post every year for the last 3 yrs. It feels like it is more 💔 each yr. The void is endless & I can’t find the words today😢 so If you would like to honor Bill, please do something nice for someone else Or you could donate to Billrussell6foundation.org Jeannine Russell

70 years ago Bill won the first of his back to back @NCAA @marchmadnessmbb titles with @usfdonsmbb #6

Bill would always keep at the core of his mission, that we must honor the past by shaping a future rooted in equality and justice for everyone.  On #MLKday we will not lose sight of that mission.

Full circle heading to ⁦@celtics⁩ game going over new William Felton “Bill” Russell bridge 💕 he would be so proud of the Bridge & the C’s

Thank you @MayorWu, John Borders & @MassGovernor. What a wonderful day to rename a bridge. I usually bring Bill flowers but I think this will suffice 💕 I hope he is proud and looking down on us.

My prayers go out to Rose and the kids on their loss of Dikembe. Husband, father & friend. He & Bill had such a special bond. The world has lost a great leader & man. Rest peacefully 🤍 -Jeannine Russell 💔
