This year, we celebrate Black History Month by remembering the sacrifices that so many before us made to advance equality for all, including Thurgood Marshall, & acknowledge that those gains are now under threat. We fight every day, along with so many others, to make sure they're not reversed. (1/2)

This Black History Month, you'll be supporting Black Penned Stories. Follow this Starter Pack. This isn't DEI. It's Anti-Segregation. #BlackSky #BookSky

ICE agents are harassing and threatening Native Americans.

If this has happened to you, call my office at (202) 225-6190.

Trump said you can tell bad immigrants by what they “look” like. Tribal members look like the first Americans. Stop harassing them.

Is This America? If we allow it, it will be so.

More than 100 years after its initial review that blamed Black men, the Dept. of Justice just released its report on the 1921 Tulsa race massacre

The report says the attack “was so systematic and coordinated that it transcended mere mob violence”
