White people from both parties struggle to give up their power and acknowledge their privilege. Find people in your communities that are running for office and spread the word, volunteer to run yourself. Let's make congress actually represent America.

Hey @ShaunKing have you seen @AndrewGillum running for Gov. of FL? FAMU grad and a staunch progressive running on medicare for all. He’s one of the ‘18 candidates I’m most excited about

Agreed!

It’s all stuffed suits. I can’t remember the last time I was food shopping and saw an old white guy in a suit

Especially when they flinch on DACA

I agree with you. We need to make a change because the black vote came out strong on 12/13. We need our voices heard.....

It's time for a change!

Tell the voters

Still white, still male. There are some female governors & senators. How many holders of state wide elected office across the country are black (or not white)?

Wow. No taxation without representation.

FYI, Indiana has a Black State Attorney General.

In my states’ defense we elected out AG to the Senate.

Perhaps we should start ignoring some of the insane antics of the right and instead start holding the leaders of the left to account much more than we have been, anything else seems less than productive

Not ok at all.

Yep! Couldn’t agree more!

BARBARA Lee should be strongly considered for leadership too!
