I've found as I get older the simpler and seemingly small things become infused with such passion and nuance, I've always thought it is a bit like holding up a glass prism to the sun and seeing so many different things as you rotate it...

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say β€œSend me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.

How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

The Department of Justice has sued 30 states and DC for access to their unreacted sensitive voter data. My law firm is fighting them in all 30 cases.

We are dedicating so many resources because these are the most important legal fights and the future of free and fair elections is at stake.

it's funny how Gabriel's Oboe has been number one in ABC classic's top 100 a couple of times and so many people still haven't seen the film...I pretty much love all music...there is no life without it...
