You are not wrong to be angry. You are not wrong to grieve. That is what it means to love and to see the people you love hurt.
We must turn that love, that anger, and all of that sorrow into action.
We must rise up as leaders, we must be loud in the streets, we must be bold and not give into fear.

RealPage allegedly helped landlords price-fix and jack up the cost of rent.
Instead of cracking down, Trump's Justice Department struck a “deal” that lets them continue to rip off renters.
Is that the art of the deal or a sham? RealPage called it "an endorsement."
