You know how Mr. Rogers famously advised to “look for the helpers” in times of tragedy? I have a similar mantra in cases like this: Look for the enablers.

Things that made me shed tears today: the Black-owned bookstore I’m partnering with on an event in Portland (Third Eye Books) was vandalized overnight—windows smashed, BLM signs thrown down, etc.

Excited that in six days, I’ll return to the ethereal space where light streams through windows like these (featuring Thurgood Marshall and Albert Einstein).

Hard to explain the feeling I had the first time I saw them at gracecathedral—kind of like, “We can do that?” 😅

YES!

Did you know that my new book, THE KNEELING MAN, is an excellent choice for YA readers? (Already hearing of teens reading it this school year!)

History—particularly civil rights history—has never mattered more. Would love to see this book in more schools and libraries 🙏🏽

I grew up hearing WLOK Radio streaming from many a tabletop radio and car stereo, so it was a singular honor to visit as a guest on Chip Washington’s show and meet president and CEO Art Gilliam—Memphis’ first Black radio station owner.

We stand on the shoulders of giants 🙏🏽

OK, I made my one joke about The Mugshot. Now I'd very much like to go back to just not thinking about the guy and his shitty cult. Sigh....

Ground Control

@MrTCB15

In response to E.G. for Example.

I liked the idea of being crippled or dead even less. So I made myself a promise at the start of the pandemic: do whatever I had to for survival. That meant wearing my mask, washing my hands until they were nearly raw and getting my shots ASAP.
