Today it's finally time to ship my papers off to @SmithsonianACM. I'm feeling some kind of way about letting go of so much of my life's work that I've been aggregating for 40 + years. But I'm also so proud that this day have arrived. Mixed emotions

Today, the Anacostia Community Museum mourns the passing of artist Sam Gilliam. The painting "Muse I," characteristic of his nonrepresentational work from the 1960s, is part of our collection. 🎨: ow.ly/yMNS50JIZ41

🌱Gardens are more than seeds + soil, they've been sites of community empowerment, allowing us to connect w/ the land, feed communities & form emotional bonds. What happens when these spaces are no longer available? How can we retain the ability to steward our green spaces? 1/2

My sincere congratulations to Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson on her confirmation as the first Black woman on the Supreme Court. This is a truly historic occasion and one I know will be a great source of inspiration to young people everywhere to set their sights high.
