Last night, I attended my FIRST day of my FIRST DNCC and somehow delivered my FIRST DNCC speech as we race towards the “official” nomination for our FIRST Black & South Asian woman presidential nominee. All while, possibly being the FIRST black woman freshman to have this opportunity. To say that I’m blown away, would be an understatement. More importantly, to hear that so many of you connected with my roller coaster of emotions speech, is so very humbling.
SN: right before I stepped on stage, I was a nervous wreck. The reality of all these FIRSTS hit me and I just didn’t want to fumble. Thank you for asking that my voice be highlighted on the big stage. 🙏🏾
