[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

I find it revealing when people mock where I came from, & say they’re going to “send me back to waitressing,” as if that is bad or shameful.

It’s as though they think being a member of Congress makes you intrinsically “better” than a waitress.

But our job is to serve, not rule.

If you don’t know Black history, then you don’t know American history. If you don’t know American history, then you don’t know America. If you don’t know America, then you don’t know yourself. Let us all take advantage of this #BlackHistoryMonth.

When is the House of Representatives holding public hearings on the threat of white supremacist terrorism in the US?

[Vernon Cole @mrvernoncole]

If I peel away the top layer of my skin...
the ugly one
that feels ice-cold glares on warm #sunny days
If I scrub it down one layer
to the white meat...

even if it hurt
how long might I be excused to blend in
before it all scarred over and grew back again?

Black again.

My fellow new Members & I were elected to work. But @SenateMajLdr McConnell seems to think otherwise. After 27 days, he still hasn’t allowed a single vote in the Senate on multiple House plans to re-open government. RT if you think he’s wrong! #EndTheShutdown #WheresMitch

I have learned much from my colleague @YAppelbaum over the years. Today, you have that opportunity. He has published an essay that is principled, sophisticated, and historically informed. No matter what you think of Donald Trump or his party, read this. https://t.co/OyLIGfv3TP

Again, I wish we would ask: "What is a racist?" instead of "Are you a racist?" and "What is a White supremacist?" instead of "Are you a White supremacist?" and "What is a White nationalist?" instead of "Are you a White supremacist?" They hate defining. They love denying.

[Ibram X. Kendi @ibramxk]

It should be an impeachable offense for a politician to lie a single time to the American people. We talk about the need to get money out of politics. We also need to get lying out of politics.

This @annehelen piece on millennial burnout is definitive. It surpasses what has come before and sets a *very* high benchmark for anything on this topic to follow. It's profound, sweeping, and breathtakingly good. I'm going to read it again. https://t.co/JJv7xyXTT0
