I had a conversation with a Senator about what to do in times like these. How I still believe that we can win, if we all stop fighting each other like the billionaires want us to, and fight them instead. They said I was naive because some people feel they can't survive without dominating others...

I am from the neighborhood where the central park 5 was falsely accused. Where Donald Trump put down $80,000 of his own money into an ad campaign calling for the execution of those children. He's trying to do to the country what he tried to do to us in Harlem: Purchase lives and purchase deaths.

I was blessed with some wonderful gifts, and yet challenged everyday by the fear of using them for the good of humanity. Perhaps the fear is not an actual obstacle, but a gift in itself that will give me the life experience needed to speak to other people who are also afraid. #fearisnottheend

Do not neglect the meek. The people who have been so beaten down by what we have seen in the last few days, they're hopeless. Not all of us are bold enough to push back. But to those of us who have the gift to embolden and empower those people? We need you first, to teach us how to stand up again.
