Anyone can stand up, at any time, for what is right.
Today we said goodbye to Claudette Colvin, whose act of courage at age 15 was almost forgotten, but spurred Rosa Parks and one of the greatest movements for change. Claudette knew that injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. I was honored to speak at her funeral. RIP my friend, RIP.

I’ve seen schools close for snow, for pandemic, for natural disaster. I’ve never seen schools close because of threat from our own government.
