...Now, it’s time for us to do our part. The doors are open, we simply have to be brave enough to walk in and put hand to plow. If you’re looking for a better opportunity, put your name in the hat.
If you’ve got young people in college that need opportunities, tell them to put their names in the hat. And if they say, “Mom, no way I could ever do that.’ Show ‘em this Tweet. Show ‘em these pictures. And say, “This lady @1908Explorer did it. Why can’t you?”
“Flowers are for the living.” Great job Anna Morris! I agree with Lt. Gen. Morris. I can think of no more deserving a person! You done went from talking about #BlackHistory to BEING Black History!
@Twitter Family, @1908Explorer is a member of @akasorority1908, a proud proud PROUD @UF #Gator, and a hotel and travel snob! Oh, there shall be no @LaQuintaInn on her travel itinerary! And her rental car MUST be full size!

#BlackHistoryMonth is an opportunity to understand Black histories, going beyond stories of racism and slavery to spotlight Black success and high achievement. However, the focus on the past sometimes causes us to overlook the history that Black people make right now today.
There are times that Black History walks among us and we fail to recognize its greatness. My grandmomma used to say, “Flowers are for the living.” That is to say, can’t no dead people smell no flowers! Why do we wait for people to die before we honor them?
Let’s honor them now! While they can appreciate it! And they can know that we appreciate them! And sometimes, Black History is as simple as representation.

So I’m in the @safeway with the little one. Mom wants chips, either Plain or BBQ. We’re on the chip aisle and lil man not only goes for the @ruffles but he grabs a bag of Lime & Jalapeno. Me: “Lime and Jalapeno?!?! Lil Man, them chips gone be nasty asf!” But then I thought…
with all the many bags of chips on the chip aisle, Lil Man gravitated to the one lone bag with a picture of somebody that looked like him, @antdavis23. And then I stood back and scanned the chip aisle and said...
“Wow, you mean #Ruffles is the ONLY brand featuring a Person of the Global Majority???” That’s absolutely unbelievable to me!

I originally ordered major appliances from @HomeDepot back in January. It was the pandemic, so I wasn’t surprised when they told me that shipping would take three months. The supply chain was backed up while everyone figured out COVID.
But guess what, this is the end of April, and @HomeDepot just called for the THIRD time in three months to tell me that my appliances won’t be arriving on time. They’ve scheduled THREE times already.
And every time, they wait until a few days before the delivery date to tell me that it will be another month or more. The new projection is June 4th. Well, hold on. I don’t have no money. And I don’t have no merchandise.

Okay, so I've FINALLY figured out what @JoeBiden said. However, I don't think what Joe Biden said is the real issue because I've said the SAME thing several times myself.
But my question is this. WHERE is all this energy when it comes to @SenatorTimScott , @DiamondandSilk, @PARISDENNARD, @RealCandaceO, @GayleKing, #ClarenceThomas, @tavissmiley, @CornelWest, and that greasy ass pastor what's-his-name that looks like a pimp?
There's a whole LOT of people that I wish y'all would hate on instead of Joe damn Biden! But let's not let Joe off the hook. Joe's problem is not what Joe said; but rather, what Joe DIDN'T say.

Senator @KamalaHarris, although @TreHU92 supports your campaign with great gusto and enthusiasm, he is unable to enlighten me on the specifics of your platform with respect to any #BlackAgenda that you may have. Ma'am, can you address the following: #2020election
While White America has made it clear that reparations for Slavery and Jim Crow are not up for debate, that doesn’t mean that other economic equalizers cannot be put into place. What is your approach to making the economy more fair and balanced with respect to Black America?
Considering your prosecutorial record vs Black men while Attorney General of California, what is your assessment of policing in America and what do you intend to do to improve it?
