Anne Arundel NAACP

Did you ever just need to hear a speech? One that uplifts both the room and your spirits - reminding us of the work that came before us and the work we have ahead? That was last night’s powerful speech by the Rev. Al Sharpton at the @aacnaacp’s 49th Freedom Fund Banquet! Congratulations to the organizers and the awardees who make our community strong and resilient. Special thanks to my campaign mom, Juanita Cage Lewis, for being the bestplus-one!

On this #MemorialDay, we honor the brave soldiers who served and sacrificed for our nation. Their courage and dedication paved the way toward freedom and justice. We remember and salute them today and always.

Today is all about giving thanks, and we are grateful for you every day. All the good trouble we get into together, the support you give, and the community we're building together. #HappyThanksgiving to you!
