It was great speaking with Imani and Austin, two outstanding @UrbanAlliance Obama Youth Jobs Corps students. They’re proof that when we connect young people with training and meaningful work experience, it benefits our communities and the world. pic.twitter.com/6hXjZNsSXx

Michelle and I started the @ObamaFoundation's Futures Series to connect the young leaders of tomorrow with the trailblazers of today. It’s great to see the impact that it’s already having on students from the South Side. https://t.co/0Ga97LzU09

We have a responsibility to the young people of the neighborhood. That's why we launched our Futures Series at Hyde Park Academy, the high school that neighbors the future Obama Presidential Center, to expose students to careers they may not have been envisioning for themselves. pic.twitter.com/fyLYITWG7r

As we grieve the children of Uvalde today, we should take time to recognize that two years have passed since the murder of George Floyd under the knee of a police officer. His killing stays with us all to this day, especially those who loved him.

I was at @Stanford with the @ObamaFoundation to talk about the rise of disinformation around the world and the threat it poses to democracy. We all have a role to play here, so let’s get to work. pic.twitter.com/IO6oi5CdQs

When Barack and I left the White House, we asked you to help us shape the @ObamaFoundation's work. Since then, we’ve launched nine programs and connected countless leaders around the world. This is just the beginning, and we can’t wait for what's next. https://t.co/PrGkDTRbP3 pic.twitter.com/gGX9zX8tIf

We’ve done some important work since the Paris Agreement was signed six year ago, but we’re still nowhere near where we need to be on climate. Watch live from #COP26 in Glasgow as I talk about the steps we can take to combat climate change. https://t.co/fpoGbnNehm

2020 was a year of uncertainty and unrest. But it was also a year where hope led the way, as new leaders stepped in to confront challenges with hard work, creativity, and empathy, and showed us how hope can turn anguish into action.

On the ninth anniversary of DACA, I’m thinking about all the brave DREAMers who have stepped forward to tell their stories. They have fueled a movement that is still working to guarantee the permanent protections they deserve. I will always be inspired by their fight. pic.twitter.com/YrVuuVTrrE
