It's not what it's about.

It's about standing up for some basic American principles.

It is a basic American principle to me that everyone should have fair access to the American dream.

It is a basic principle to me that everyone should have an unobstructed right to vote.

It is a basic principle to me that we should have freedom of speech and freedom to learn about our history and our culture.

I think there's some basic things that are very fundamental that appear to be under attack, that are under attack.

And I just feel like I don't want people, we can't be weary, tired.

Complacency is our enemy.

Despair is not a strategy.

Being pissed off and angry is not a strategy.

Except to the extent that it energizes us to do something.

I would encourage people to get involved.

If you want to get involved in the Urban League, go to NUL.org, sign up.

You can be part of our advocacy efforts and that sort of thing.

You can join a local affiliate in 92 communities across the nation.

If the Urban League is not for you, join an organization that's committed to civil rights and social justice.

Be a part.

Use your social media.

To not only post beautiful pictures of yourself, but also to advocate for the kind of change and community improvement.
