I got this message in my inbox this morning:
I have been told that tomorrow evening during the President's State of the Union speech, there is an alternative for us to watch. If you were already wondering how you could handle watching the President boasting about what he has accomplished and will do yet, this may be good news. The broadcast is called " THE STATE OF OUR UNION" and it will begin at 6pm Central time & go to approximately midnight. To find this alternative to the President's speech, if all works as is hoped, we can log into Youtube.com/RolandSMartin, or view this on the Black Star Network (BSN) app.
The broadcast will be broken into 30-minute blocks with speakers that include Congressional Black Caucus members, civil rights activists, voting rights advocates, labor leaders, business leaders, grassroots activists and millennials. The organizers of the broadcast are planning to go live to New Haven, Connecticut, the moment President Trump walks to the mic, and they will begin with a speech from Rev. William J. Barber II. Periodically, besides the speakers already listed, the advocates will show clips of the President and discuss what is being said.
If you are interested in spreading the word about this alternative and also tuning in, the creators of the broadcast hope that Trump's ratings will be very LOW while each of us finds much needed inspiration. Their goal is to have 100,000 views and hopefully this can be accomplished.

There's a world of a difference between fair/honest and legal. Please never confuse the two!

Will This Be the Place?
Oh man oh man I hope so!
Throw me your best thrifting find stories, the latest plant you grew, something that made you smile, a breakthrough you had or almost had, a place you struggle, a quote you love, a slice of beauty you noticed, an injustice you want to genuinely talk about, a memory of your Gran, a picture of the weather. Just whatever it is, be #thoughtful be #kind, be #authentic, and you're my people ❣️
Let's make this a GOOD - and INTERESTING! - place 😘
