I remember this like it was yesterday. My entire family+extended family was at my house & when he won all of the grandparents started pouring in tears for hours. I mean I knew it was a big deal but just considering the historical context..i couldn't imagine what they were feeling https://twitter.com/funder/status/1250431948184408069

especially because my grandfather used to tell me so many stories about the sit-ins he would do at white-only restaurants in Virginia. They had fought for equality for so long and at some point the faith just got dim. things like this always remind me to keep the faith
