Tessa Thompson: As a Black American, there is a kind of bone-tired exhaustion in fighting the battles that we have fought so many times before, and insisting time and time again, generation after generation, that people have the right to exist even if they speak out against the state.
I’ve spent years fighting for better leadership in Florida, and that’s why I’m supporting Earle Ford for Chief Financial Officer.
Building a statewide campaign takes resources, and today I’m asking 100 people to contribute $26 for 2026.
That’s it. Just $26.
Together, we can help elect a CFO who is focused on Florida families, affordability, accountability, and transparency.
Will you chip in?

105 years after the Tulsa Race Massacre, community members gathered at Standpipe Hill to collect soil honoring victims and survivors whose lives were stolen or forever changed. The bloodshed that destroyed Black Wall Street was not just history, it was a devastating attack on Black prosperity. We honor the victims by refusing to let the truth be forgotten.
70 years ago today, Florida A&M alumna and trailblazing tennis icon #AltheaGibson made history by winning the French Open at Roland Garros. The following year, she became the first Black athlete to win Wimbledon, continuing a legendary run that reshaped the sport forever.
