@abbydphillip @GayleKing .@abbydphillip: “I think that the lesson of 2020 has been that more people need to be involved. We can encourage and empower other people to speak confidently and knowledgeably about race in this country” thecut.io/3vMJ3x6
@abbydphillip @GayleKing .@abbydphillip: “As a journalist, this is my way of making a small difference. If I can shine light on these issues and bring the perspectives and the challenges facing Black people in this country to light, it’s a good day. And that’s what keeps me going” thecut.io/3vMJ3x6
@abbydphillip @GayleKing .@abbydphillip: “I know what Trump said is not true, and I don’t take things like that personally, particularly from this president who has a long history of insulting people. I don’t get my self-esteem from Donald Trump or any other politician, frankly” thecut.io/3vMJ3x6
@abbydphillip @GayleKing .@abbydphillip: “It’s long overdue for us to critically rethink what is considered ‘mainstream’ or ‘objective’ versus what is often treated as a special interest” thecut.io/3vMJ3x6

@abbydphillip @GayleKing .@abbydphillip: “The higher you climb, the more you have to deliver something that people really value. But I want to keep up with my own life as well” thecut.io/3vMJ3x6
