    Boyz n the Hood Poetic Justice Higher Learning Shaft Baby Boy Snowfall These are just a few of John Singleton's work. He was a legendary filmmaker who told authentic stories about the Black experience. He inspired generations of artists behind him. May he rest in peace.

    Congressman John Lewis spent his life fighting racism and injustice wherever he confronted it, from boycotts, sit-ins, and other protests in the streets, to championing bold, progressive policies in Congress. #ripjohnlewis
