It has been heartwarming to spend this day surrounded by people who value human rights, diversity, science, social services, and ethical, intelligent leadership.

      I send out lots of love to the people here in DC and around the world who came together today in such a peaceful and beautiful expression of free speech. I’m so grateful to have been one of the 500,000 people who marched in DC and 5 million who marched worldwide.

      Employees inside the Smithsonian’s African-American History Museum cheered for us as we passed.
