I stole all courtesy from heaven And dressed myself in such humility That I could pluck allegiance from men’s heart #HenryIV #SCLA @shakespearecenterla
For some things, 100 is old. For #Scandal, 100 is so much f*cking fun! #Scandal100 #TGIT
Dear President Barack Obama, . An American of African descent as President of the United States is a moment in American history I never thought I would witness. Your depth, your grace, and integrity, remains, for many, as the spirit you imbued throughout your presidency, and throughout this country. Your wisdom and oratory may no longer be part of this new administration’s lexicon, but your words will always be with us. . “We, the People, recognize that we have responsibilities as well as rights; that our destinies are bound together; that a freedom which only asks what’s in it for me, a freedom without a commitment to others, a freedom without love or charity or duty or patriotism, is unworthy of our founding ideals, and those who died in their defense.” . #ThankYou, President #BarackObama. I anticipate hearing from you … again. . #NeverCanSayGoodbye -Joe Morton

“Ya’ll think that democracy is the supreme law in this country? Huh? Capitalism is the supreme law in this country. And we got a hell of a job tryin’ to get those capitalists behind the constitution.“ #TurnMeLoose #DickGregory 1932-2017
Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. #TrumpGetsPoped! 300 million That’s the number of people you could be responsible for, Mr. Trump Not the number of voters but the number of people you’d be responsible for There’s a difference One hopes it’s the people who compelled you to run for office in the first place You decided to run But it can never be about you It must always be about the people All the people And if you become President You will be the one giving the orders You will be the one making the decisions You’ll have to choose what’s good for the greater whole 300 million You can never make a decision lightly You will always suffer a bit from each one The responsibility of that The gravity of that The weight of it 300 million Whatever you’ll think of your enemies Whenever you’ll want to punish them Being Commander-in-Chief is a responsibility That cannot conflate imperiousness with power And there is, incidentally, a point America is more than just white men If the deck is stacked against everyone else You can never be the white man-in-chief Because the entire country is what is worth saving The entire country Mexicans, Muslims, gays, the handicapped, poor people, women, people of color Everyone Everyone in this country is worth saving In the face of darkness, Mr. Trump Your responsibility will be to drag everyone into the light That, Mr. Trump, is the point of being President of these United States At least, that is the hope of American democracy
The men of #Scandal doing what they do Thursdays … tweeting. #TGIT

Loved this beautiful talented woman for years. Love that she loved @turnmelooseplay! #turnmeloose #phyliciarashad #oldfriends #adifferentworld #clairhuxtable #werefightingback
Love need not be a command, maybe just a suggestion … but what if that ‘suggestion’ is from an account called God? Wade in the water and stream the pilot > @godfriendedme or link in bio
Years ago, in #Eureka, I was surrounded by TV geniuses. Today, still surrounded by TV geniuses, but for real. Happy #Scandalversary 🙂
I Will Survive . With Trump as President How do I as a black man Look my country in the face And feel free As a Latino And not feel suspected As a Muslim and feel safe As a woman And not feel assaulted As an immigrant And feel accepted As a homosexual And not feel ostracized Will the Constitution The Bill of Rights The Declaration of Independence Still hold true Still be the principals we follow Will our democracy still stand I will hope I will persevere With faith I will survive

A Passageway to Freedom – – – – – – What’s with this transgender rant Haven’t you ever thought Is the flying fish God’s joke The sea horse a glimmer of genius Variegated tulips yellow and red Born of a virus was a commodity in your flowerbed Humanity’s mold And nature’s rules are intrinsically broke What you can’t imagine Nature will invoke Man’s law aims to be fair Nature’s law is an enigma A flightless bird That soars through oceans Is not a stigma It’s a miracle Humans too are often More than what they seem Endeavoring to become transformed Kings to Queens Or vice-versa Embodying their dreams To be complete Transgender is a passageway to freedom Breathing through a body that fits Surrounding a soul without holes or pits Humans are not separate from nature What you can imagine nature will display Tolerance of other humans With different needs and dissimilar ways Is nature’s way of making progress #loveislove #lgbt #nycpride
We need to tighten our grip on the ease with which handguns (and machine guns) become part of #TheAnatomyOfMurder.
Had so much fun, we’re doing it again! #TurnMeLoose #Scandal #GladiatorNight #MeetAndGreet
Take a #BluesBreak at 2PM today! @wbgojazz #turnmeloose
