  Thank you Congresswoman. You inspire me. I will try harder to confront racism when I see it & hear it. #IL14 is so lucky to have you represent us.

  Lip service will no longer do. Its time for America to address the damages of slavery, and the continued destruction of American descendant of slavery. Its time to cut the check. Black politicians are being put on notice. If you're not with us, you're against us.pic.twitter.com/20AriYFYws
