This journey to be the next Mayor of Louisville is long one and I need to be clear. I am 5'3 and I do wear heels but I will not get any taller y'all! :-) I realize I don't look like your average candidate. I am a short, black woman that gets things done.

This week, I thought about quitting all my jobs and becoming the Stacey Abrams of #Kentucky ! Would love to flip the seats of elites across our beautiful state! It takes money, time, travel, and a team. I'm still raising two boys and will work to do what I can in the meantime. 🤓

Spoke with my brother in prison 2× yesterday & it means so much because we are too far away to visit often. Visitation restores faith in all.

“Visitation is so important to maintaining a prisoner’s faith. So important. I can’t believe they would simply take that away” It’s a shame how incarcerated people and their families are constantly exploited to their last dime for impersonal & inhumane treatment.

Thinking of my Shameka for Mayor campaign manager and school board member Chris Kolb and all the family of dearest Kate Kolb who died last week. She was Chris's sister and she leaves behind a legacy of kindness, love, and activism. ❤️💕❤️

Today, I woke up 47 years old with an amazing view of my city of Louisville💕 Last night, my dear friends Erica and Attica hosted a sleepover at the Omni Hotel. I had never stayed here and enjoyed every minute. We dined at Bob's Steakhouse and played Ebonopoly. I wanted to work

#Day188 at #InjusticeSquarePark demanding #JusticeforBreonnaTaylor ✊🏾. Yes I skipped #Day187 so we could honor & bury our dear #TravisNagdy . Many of us took off work and our regular scheduled programming to be present in the moment. Such a beautiful soul and spirit! #KeepGoing

At the bus stop this am with mine & more students. I'm so sorry we didn't protect you and the others #TyreeSmith but we will do more going forward. No Chief Shields, we reject your idea, these kids deal with enough trauma. #WeAreJCPS #WeGotUs #doyourpart #keepgoing #ripTyreeSmith

25 years ago today I was arrested at my home and held on a unaffordable cash bail all because I defended myself with a weapon. I am blessed to now do the work of ensuring #Freedomshouldbefree every way I can. #EndCashBail #FreedomFridaysCaravan #FreedomFriday #LSURJ #humpdayvibes

RIP Mr. Ishmael Worth Puckett, the 13th person to die in LMDC in just over 13 months. We must do better when people are in our custody. You deserve human rights and dignity even while incarcerated pretrial. #nomorejaildeaths #saytheirnames

I'm struggling today especially after my nephew and his brother was shot yesterday. But this warmed my heart. Thank you Maxwell & Aaron Conway for being there as you reinstalled the replica of the original #BreonnaTaylor art at #InjusticeSquarePark 📷Photo credit : Maxwell
