2. The customs officer specifically brought up my role as a leader in the #BlackLivesMatter Movement and wanted to know why I traveled to Egypt.

3. I have my wife and kids with me. We’ve been flying for nearly 24 straight hours. Exhausted.
Called our attorney @theintercept & emergency contacts. Thankfully we had a plan for this foolishness.
Instructed wife & kids to not say a damn word.
Out now. On our way home.
