I’ve been a fan of @StevieWonder for as long as I can remember. That’s why I’m proud to share The Wonder of Stevie podcast from @HGMedia and @Questlove, which explores the five-year period starting from 1972 where Stevie released some of the most groundbreaking albums that transformed music.
I hope you'll take some time to listen on Audible or wherever you get your podcasts.

I met with the chief of police in the city in the photo below today. More details about the purpose of my visit will be shared in a separate post. The first person to correctly identify the department and send me a direct message, followed by a response on this thread, will receive a challenge coin.

April 3, 1968
56 years ago today
This speech given in Memphis on the night before he was assassinated was delivered without notes & Dr. King, feeling sick had not planned to speak, but he summoned the strength to deliver this powerful speech in support of striking Workers. #MLK

APRIL 3, 1968 as we reflect on the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. we can admire that on his very last days he was still fighting the good fight of faith in justice for all. #Nonviolence365 #MLK
