@yanghype @AOC Why not ask for evidence instead of hate and threats? That type of action shows that they really don’t care if any evidence was presented.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

I deal w/ a lot of violent threats, vitriol, etc.

But I never get more hate aimed at me than when I address racial inequities.

If some people think racial disparities are as much a myth as other issues I discuss, then why do they get so much more violent & angry on this topic?

FACT: #COVID19 is NOT airborne.

The #coronavirus is mainly transmitted through droplets generated when an infected person coughs, sneezes or speaks.

To protect yourself:
-keep 1m distance from others
-disinfect surfaces frequently
-wash/rub your 👐
-avoid touching your 👀👃👄

Food workers.
Grocery clerks.
Cashiers.
Delivery drivers.
Warehouse stockers.

They were never “unskilled workers.”
They were always essential.

And it’s WAY past time they got the respect they deserve w/ a living wage, paid sick leave, guaranteed healthcare, hazard pay, & more.

Could you not live without #Coffee or your camera? Well, those and more were originally created by #Muslims the same people that the current administration is trying to #MuslimBan. Here is an article by @MvslimInspires illustrates their important impact.

Yesterday we celebrated #InternationalWomensday. Today a Syrian, single refugee mother told me that her daughter was married at 15 because the family is desperately poor: the terrible reality for millions of girls deprived of their childhood, often in refugee situations.
