“Design isn’t just what we do for a living, it’s what we do on our weekends. So this show is perfect.

“Dear graduates of 20-whatever-year-it-is when I come down there, you just graduated from a shady school that has the name of a shady state. That tried to pass a shady law.

That is what I would say.” —Actor and UGA graduate Tituss Burgess speaking on Georgia’s HB 757 on “The Late Show.” (April 7/Screencap Image)
