A story of his that I love to talk and think about is how often this man, no taller than 4 feet, would cause mayhem in advocacy people that he had more operating privilege over.
Anytime someone would say something in support of slavery, he'd yell and call them a "negro-master". MAKE BIGOTS EMBARRASSED (and call them directly by their bigotry)!

I think about this one particular person in the React community that threw up a white supremacist-adjacent symbol at a conference; a person of color called him out for it (not a Black person, mind you) and they made her life HELL.
Y'all could start with the bare minimum. But hey, gotta keep that DOM rendered!
