2018 was a tough year for civ rts & justice. I’m proud of how civil rights lawyers & activists fought & often won. The year was also marked by extraordinary, wonderful & uplifting experiences that strengthened me for the battles ahead. I’m grateful for each of those experiences.
A surprise party last Jan. to commemorate my 5th anniversary as Director-Counsel at @NAACP_LDF attended by the two living former D-Cs, my mentors Elaine Jones and Ted Shaw. My girl @JNelsonLDF set me up masterfully. I was clueless right up to the moment. It was lovely. 
Had a moment with the great one - Justice Bader Ginsburg - at @ConstitutionCtr where we first met 25 years ago. Also good to see my friend Marcia Greenberger.
On a trip to California, I visited one of my favorite places - the Sequoia forest at Muir Woods. I leave this place humble, awestruck and at peace.
Last summer Anita Hill and I sat outside an auditorium in a corner at the Amplify conference where she offered me such important personal advice on how to survive the pressures of this moment. #2018Wrapped
I will never forget this lovely, honest conversation with one of my heroes - Ms. Elizabeth Eckford - at the celebration of the opening if the Lynching Museum in Montgomery. A deeply thoughtful, giving and courageous woman. #LittleRock9 #2018Wrapped
