This happened yesterday! Wow. America’s racial divide was, in fact, built on a lie, and it seems you all want to deal with it. Yes! Let’s go!!!💫💫💫
The Unseen Truth, and the power of extraordinary @carriemaeweems’s work on the cover, designed by @pacific_pacific, inspired the only and only @laolunyc—yes, from Beyoncé’s Lemonade yes, yes—to bring me a jacket on the NYC launch to celebrate. Unprompted. After speaking about the book with icons @darrenwalker and @sherrilynifill. I am still stunned! I’m so grateful to all of my loved ones who have made this journey possible. This surprise gift from Laolu captured it all with such style and care. Laolu, thank you for your light! Thank you for seeing the light in others! You are a treasure. Thank you for the honor of your gift!! Happy Pub Day to The Unseen Truth!! Available where you get your favorite books!

What a JOY to kick off The Unseen Truth book tour with the inimitable, extraordinary icons @darrenwalker and @sherrilynifill and the 900 of you who joined in person and virtually at the @fordfoundation!! This book is 10 years in the making and I’m honored to be able to share it with you all at last. Thank you to everyone who attended and to everyone I will see at the next 8 stops (reposting all dates in my stories)!! See you soon! Thank you again to Darren Walker and Sherrilyn Ifill and the team at Ford. Monday’s launch of this book into the world in conversation with you both was truly a dream I didn’t know to dream!!!

In the profile that made me tear up about my Harvard Vision and Justice class, the amazing @dylangoodman_ included 6 students who wanted to talk about the impact on their work. Here are the other three! Thank you so much, Dylan Goodman (the amazing photographer), Tenzin Gund-Morrow (slide 1), Anoushka Chander (slide 2), and Elyse Martin-Smith (slide 3) So brilliant, each one. Again, a huge thanks to @stephanie_blair_mitchell for guidance the @harvard gazette for publishing it along with Dylan’s brilliant words about that class!

Teachers do so much that is unseen and much of it is happening right now. So, I’m getting a little choked up as I look at this: One of my incredible Harvard students, a wonderful photographer, @dylangoodman_, created a Richard Avedon-styled shoot for students who felt moved to talk about the impact of my Harvard Vision and Justice course on their work. The amount of labor and vision this took floored me. Thank you so much, Dylan Goodman (the great photographer), @iammarleydias Marley Dias (slide 1), @toussaintjmiller Toussaint Miller (slide 2), and Ryan Tierney (on slide 3, who is off now serving in the Navy!). A huge thanks to @stephanie_blair_mitchell for guidance the @harvard gazette for publishing it along with Dylan’s brilliant words about that class. It’s August! Give a teacher a huge month! Haha. No, seriously.

“See how I come to work? Very demure. Very mindful.” 😌😁 Okay, I will stop. But I adore this Carla Hayden, the Librarian of Congress. All things photography and justice at @annenbergspace
The Unseen Truth coming out next month has let me dip back into the launch of my very first book The Rise with so much joy and gratitude for the amazing surprises. The first was launching it at Sundance with Robert Redford, Joey Soloway, Dave Eggers, Charles Limb, and more. The panel was about the gift of failure in the creative process. (The video failed to play. It was the headline on the event at Deadline. A wink from the universe. I am so grateful to Sundance.
