It’s actually unbelievable how Black people in America aren’t more angry at all times. https://t.co/hlxlD8prYx

Black people have been under the boot of racism, white supremacy, economic anxiety, inequality and so much else. Despite it all, we somehow didn’t vote for a racist and didn’t storm not nary a U.S. capitol. But sure, let’s keep centering everything around aggrieved white people.

With so much going on, Dr. King’s leadership is as steadying a force as it’s ever been. I’ve been reflecting a lot on his example, and how it might help us move forward after these last four years. #MLKDay pic.twitter.com/oGCF2wbT18

Dear politicians/political influencers:

When you tweet about my father’s birthday, remember that he was resolute about eradicating racism, poverty & militarism.
Encourage & enact policies that reflect your birthday sentiments.
Here’s the authentic #MLK:pic.twitter.com/eCJWCVnD1k
If anyone had a right to question whether our democracy was worth redeeming, it was Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Because in the face of billy clubs and lynchings, poll taxes and literacy tests, he never gave in to violence, never waved a traitorous flag or gave up on our country. pic.twitter.com/TCmbuiXkUa

On #MLKDay, we celebrate his life but we’re also called to live out his values through service of our own. Here are… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

I always look at the quotes that people choose to post today on #MLKDay. When I see white folks post the "Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that" I cringe a little. B/c that's one of the top ones used out of context to scold us for our anger at white supremacy.

As you honor my father today, please honor my mother, as well. She was the architect of the King Legacy and founder of @TheKingCenter, which she founded less than three months after Daddy died. Without #CorettaScottKing, there would be no #MLKDay. #MLK #BelovedCommunity pic.twitter.com/cLvgTjeUwE

I'm old enough to remember when too many news leaders questioned if Black journalists could cover Black Lives Matter & the nation's civil unrest. They claimed we couldn't be objective. Now I ask those leaders, can white journalists effectively cover the Trump insurrection story? pic.twitter.com/d4v4EX9xCV

For those who are wondering why so much attention has been focused on the response of the Capitol Police to the Trump-inspired riots, here’s a data-driven article that provides some useful frame of reference. https://t.co/MAdlWGRd23
