Jacari chose her own character for book character day at her school today. She decided to be Rosa Parks because, as she put it, “I would’ve gone to jail for equality if I was alive back in that day.” I couldn’t be more proud. #bookcharacterday #blackhistory #shesgotnext

If you can't afford bail, Metro charges you $44 a day to sit in jail awaiting trial. @freddieoconnell wants to eliminate those fees. nashvillescene.com/news/feat…

The vote is precious, almost sacred. Friends of mine paid the ultimate price so that every person can vote their conscience. As a native of Alabama, I ask you to do your part. Honor their sacrifice. Vote.
I literally almost screamed roll tide for the first time in my life....still #vfl though! Barely. 😂
