Thank you @kamauware for speaking with students, staff and guests today about resilience, NYC’s history, the importance of asking questions and uncomfortable conversations, addressing childhood wounds, your inspiration for @BlackGotham, and reminding all to take those long walks!

It was an honor to work on this tour and video with @kamauware and his team at @BlackGotham! #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackGotham #CityHall
"EPICENTER: The Grounds" is a crash course on the “hidden” Black history of NYC, using City Hall a framing device — from the slave-trading history of the city’s founding to a massive African burial ground recently rediscovered by City Hall.

Hey @chucktodd I noticed you called the 18 yr old mass shooter in Buffalo a “boy”… Was that in your script? Because the military age requirement in these United States is also 18. The shooter is grown and a monster.
