@arndreaking.bsky.social & I are saddened to hear of the passing of Rev. Jesse L. Douglas. Though we only now learn of his passing, we are grateful to see such a beautiful obituary that captures the courage, vision & dedication he brought to the civil rights movement and the fight for voting rights.

@arndreaking.bsky.social & I are saddened by the passing of D’Angelo. His voice carried soul itself—raw, honest, transcendent. His music didn’t just shape a sound; it shaped a generation, giving rhythm to love, struggle, and truth. Our hearts are with his family & all who felt the power of his art.

Justice calls and freedom answers. To build the #BelovedCommunity, we must gather not in fear but in faith. We must answer the call.
Freedom, justice, and equality come from turning to each other and not on each other. Practicing what my father called “agape love”—the highest form of love.

Their struggle laid bare the blatant violations of the 1957 Civil Rights Act and the Constitution itself. Yet even in the face of injustice, their courage helped spark a movement that changed America. We remember their bravery and the ongoing fight to protect the right to vote today.
On this day in 1963, hundreds of courageous Selma residents gathered for ‘Freedom Day,’ risking intimidation and arrest to register to vote. At the time, only 1% of the majority-Black population in Dallas County was registered.

You have to deliberately cultivate a mindset of love in the face of oppression. That requires intentionally choosing the higher path of love, righteousness, and justice.

Dad’s dream of the #BelovedCommunity is alive in every act of service, every stand for justice, and every gesture of compassion. Together, we can bend the moral arc of the universe closer to justice.
Legacy isn’t about what we leave behind; it’s about how we carry ourselves through life. It's about embodying peace and living a life of love.
It's the path to true fulfillment.
