It’s going to break your heart how many people you know, love, and respect will turn out to be cowards. Prepare yourself as best you can. You are not alone, but you are your own center. Be a strong center.

Malcolm-Jamal Warner walked one of the most purposeful walks of an entire generation, carrying us all on his shoulders. He did it with so much depth. So much heart. So much swag. So much purpose.
And so much joy. I am at a loss. This is painful. #MalcolmJamalWarner #blacksky #jazzsky
