In our first episode, we share stories about growing up on Euclid Avenue in Chicago and the journey that led us to who we are today — from life on the South Side to going to college together… pic.twitter.com/h9Od0xRUOg
I just wanted to say thank you for all the prayers, kind words, and love that you all have shown our entire family these last few days. Every text, comment on social media, and beautiful tribute has brought us some light. It means so much to hear what a special woman she was to…
My mom Marian Robinson was my rock, always there for whatever I needed. She was the same steady backstop for our entire family, and we are heartbroken to share she passed away today. We wanted to offer some reflections on her remarkable life: https://t.co/F7T6q625PC
Paraphrasing from Michelle Obama’s “Becoming” book
She asked her Mom why she was holding Barack’s hand on election night
“His father left when he was 2. He lost his mother to cancer. He was moments away from becoming leader of the free world with no parents. So I took his hand” pic.twitter.com/mjJXSMtaqw
My mom has always been my rock and I’m so grateful for all the ways she continues to show up for my family. She’s taught me so much over the years, and I feel so lucky that I get to pass that same wisdom down to my own girls.
Happy birthday to the woman who has guided me through life. Your love, your support—all of your thoughtful advice—means more to me than you'll ever know. I love you so much, mom! 💕🫶🏾 pic.twitter.com/9ZmQLqKOBl

Happy birthday to the woman who taught me how to think for myself, use my voice, and show up authentically in this world. Your belief that I mattered, even when I was just a little girl, led me to where I am today. Thank you for being the ultimate role model. Love you, mom! 💗 pic.twitter.com/IbsPrrRsDt
Happy #FathersDay to all the dads out there—especially the one and only @BarackObama! Our daughters couldn’t have asked for a better role model. We’re so lucky to have you in our lives. 💗 pic.twitter.com/SoyOA2ujpa
It’s almost #FathersDay, so I’m thinking a lot about my dad and reflecting on some of the memories we shared growing up. I’d love to hear about the fathers in your life—what qualities you value in them, what makes them unique, and what the best advice they’ve given you has been. pic.twitter.com/ImkYRPS5oU
Happy Mother’s Day to @MichelleObama and all the moms celebrating today. I hope you take a moment to thank the women who love you in that special way that mothers do, and remember those who are no longer with us. pic.twitter.com/Uky8xMqHRl
I hope you take today to let all the mother figures in your life know how much you love them. I know I wouldn't be where I am today if it weren't for my mom. She's always been that guiding light in my life. Wishing her and all the moms out there a wonderful #MothersDay! 💖 pic.twitter.com/Qa1ePhSpOE
