We rightfully talk about Ruby Bridges being the first Black child to integrate an all-white school in the South at 6-years-old. But we don’t talk nearly enough about Lucille Bridges, her mom ✨

Lucille proudly and courageously held Ruby’s hand as they walked to school together as hatred & hostility swirled all around them. Lucille Bridges was a phenomenal, caring mom who wanted her child to have an education, to have every opportunity to learn. Lucille and Ruby Bridges changed the world 💜

The NAACP has released a statement while the Tarrant County Commissioners Court considers a proposal today that would cut the number of Election Day polling locations nearly in half "Let's call this what it is… voter suppression"

Tarrant County, Texas, could see around 50 percent fewer polling locations in November's election. "Let's call this what it is… voter suppression," said NAACP President and CEO Derrick Johnson. "Cutting nearly half the places where people can cast a ballot doesn't save democracy money, it costs voters their voice. Tarrant County is home to a significant number of Black and Latino voters and is a majority people-of-color county. There is no question that this plan strips away polling access on a scale that will hit Black and Brown voters hardest. That is not a coincidence. It’s an intentional assault on our ability to make our voices heard and we will push back with every tool available.”

I was looking thru old videos and I realized a #KendomFact of mine is you’ll see me rocking a pair of Clarks, or the Superman logo, or some nod to Barbie at any given point in time. lol (it started off as wearing gifts I received because of my name and later became apart of my personality 🥴lmaoooo)
