Today, I called a waitress by her name and she paused for about 7 sec before responding. I said “What’s wrong?” She replied “No one ever listens when I say my name.” We both looked like we were about to cry. Calling someone by their name can be a powerful thing. Happy Friday.

#historylesson #reggiejackson How much progress has really been made when school boards vote to rename schools in honor of Confederate generals?
Alex Rodriguez asked a question. Reggie Jackson answered it. (Shouts to the producer and rest of the desk for staying out of Reggie’s way and just letting him talk. I doubt they expected this answer. But it’s a great few minutes of television.) https://t.co/7WqjlppvF8

“Identity is made up of who we say we are, who others say we are, and the people we desire to be” @GholdyM. Begin today by asking yourself, “Who do I need to be to facilitate and support diverse groups of people?” Happy Friday!✊🏾🌎
