I completely forgot that today is the big sports ball day. Fortunately, I was reminded at the gym and avoided making the huge mistake of going to the grocery store this afternoon. (I’ll probably go while the game is playing.)

In light of Beyoncé’s historic Grammy win tonight, I’m resharing a video I did about her country music predecessor, Linda Martell, for Black History Month last year. #cowboycarter

Honoring Dr. King #mlkday

The African American Intellectual Historical Society (AAIHS) has an award winning blog, Black Perspectives, full of fantastic readings on Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King. They are intellectual and thought-provoking, yet easy to read. Here are some of them. (A 🧵) 1/8 #mlkday

Every MLK weekend, I try to read something by Dr. King that I hadn't previously read, or haven't in a while. I rather enjoyed his sermon "A tough mind and a tender heart."

The original sermon outline is here:
