I keep thinking about how, during my author event at NatCivilRightsMuseum, I learned that I am the first Black woman to author a book about Dr. King’s assassination, as well as the first Black person to solely author such a book. In a way, I’m glad I didn’t know... that before, because /1show more

it would have seemed that much more daunting. But I hope this somehow makes things easier for those following the path—and I can’t think of a better place to have received this info 🙏🏽 /2
