We need to rip down and destroy the white power structure in this nation.

It took awhile, but I finally figured out I was being stupid.

We are seriously -- seriously -- off track.

Tolerance, forgiveness, compassion, willingness to stop seeing certain people as "others" -- all of this is like a great sea, and there are tides.

Our only hope to truly fulfill our promise as a nation is to come fully and forcefully to grips with what actually is the case, as opposed to dealing with what seems to be the case.

No institution survives and thrives without public consent. We must withdraw our consent to brutal policing that targets our communities of color.

I'm pretty good at defiance.

Although some of my fellow citizens revel in their right to be stupid, I think they should think about the lives that will be lost due to their stupidity.

A flag ceremony for the ages.

The sun is shining and the road ahead -- well, the road goes ever on and on.
