.@EJDionne’s “Why Americans Hate Politics” is one of the best books written about American politics in the last 50 years. It’s an absolute honor that the central themes of my book Dignity in a Digital Age resonated with him. Please let me know your thoughts on this column! https://twitter.com/ejdionne/status/1492857700119625730

I believe in Frederick Douglass's vision of a composite nation, where people from every background come together to write the American story.

Such a pleasure meeting with @MindiMessmer and getting a signed copy of her book Female Disruptors, a must read! The stories of women scientists and their contributions in the face of discrimination are remarkable and must be recognized. https://t.co/0vQZ7xLvP8

Great joining @VanJones68 on his podcast, Uncommon Ground, to talk about my uncommon journey as a Congressman. From my grandfather’s role in the Indian Independence Movement - to my parents’ immigration to the United States - and now to the halls of Congress: https://t.co/u8KxTovR3k

Ban Toni Morrison? What’s next Faulkner? Melville? Hawthorne? Any writer, no matter how brilliant, critical of any aspect of American society? Let’s not remove these great thinkers from the American cannon. https://t.co/dA8Wr0IwQE

Martha Nussbaum is one of the most brilliant philosophers of our age. Her book The Fragility of Goodness made me rethink the role of fortune in the good life. This review of my book Dignity in a Digital Age is, put simply, a tremendous honor! https://t.co/6zJ99NvPa3

I saw a fantastic musical about Sister Rosetta Tharpe at Ford’s Theatre last night. She deserves a far bigger place in history, providing the foundation for rock & roll. Brilliant vocals & a powerful story about the sacrifices to family relationships to pursue wider ambitions.
