Never give up hope. When we give up, there are countless others whose lives will be hurt far more than they are now. This is when we find out what we are made of. Get involved & channel your anger into electing candidates at all levels of government.
Let's elect candidates who will fight for universal healthcare, who will fight to end gun violence, who will fight for women's rights, who will fight for our union brothers & sisters, who will fight for #Dreamers & those who want to come to America for a better life
Don't allow this dark cloud that this current administration has caused to be the reason we stop fighting. That's what they want & what they're counting on. Let's show them that America is truly better than racism, xenophobia, trans & homophobia, Islamophobia & outright hatred

On this day, June 25th, 1952, my mom, Joyce was born. Today would've been her 66th birthday. But sadly, she will forever be 27 b/c she shot & killed herself on Sept 8th 1979. This is the 39th birthday that I don't get to spend with her.
This the 39th year that I won't get to sing #HappyBirthday to her. Its only the 4th year that I've actually known her birthdate. Thanks to the @AMarch4OurLives students & an audience of strangers, I finally got to enjoy singing my mom Happy Birthday.
We take those moments for granted, but for me, this will be with me for the rest of my life. A group of strangers felt compelled to do something so amazing & life-changing for me & my mom. To allow me the chance to just live in that moment & enjoy something that I've never done

Clementa C. Pinckney found that grace
Cynthia Marie Graham Hurd found that grace

THREAD: In all the darkness of Oct. 1, 2017, there was light.

One year after the #1October attack at the Route 91 Harvest festival on the Las Vegas Strip, here are 91 stories of heroism, helping, healing and hope. #VegasStronger
#1October Heroes:

Police Sgt. Greg White from Carlsbad, California, used the pocket knife he always carries with him to cut an opening in a fence to help his wife, friends and about 400 strangers escape from the Route 91 festival grounds→rjnews.is/2QkZBa8

#1October Heroes:

Some wounded victims at University Medical Center elected to wait for treatment so others — mostly strangers — could be operated on first→bit.ly/2gYLjwB
