It is my desire that #MarkRobinson stop insulting and disparaging my father, who is not here to defend himself because he was assassinated for his work toward Mark Robinson even having civil rights, let alone running for governor.
However, Lt. Governor Robinson has proven to be so disrespectful concerning my father, my family, and others that I don’t know if he’ll respect my desire.
Let’s #TurnThePage from hate (including self-hate), racism, and fear-mongering rhetoric.

Such a giant. He left an amazing legacy but I still miss his in-person humanity, grace, generosity, intellectual curiosity, and his daily efforts to make the world and the lives of people in it better.
Happy Birthday to our late founder, Dr. William H. Danforth! 🎂 His dream of saving the world through the power of #PlantScience lives on through the work of the remarkable community he built. Thank you for continuing to inspire us, Bill. #Legacy

In 90 seconds, U.S. Navy Vet Rep Sherrill, who qualified as an expert in the M-16, Colt 45, & 9mm Beretta, CALLS OUT Republicans for not only doing NOTHING to curb gun violence but actively making our communities less safe.
This is REALLY worth it.
Wisdom out of the mouth of children. They are not born bigoted - that is taught.
