Today's #BHM spotlight belongs to Shirley Chisholm. As the first Black woman in Congress, Chisholm's refusal to accept the status quo made her a formidable catalyst for change.
In February 1960, college freshmen David Richmond, Franklin McCain, Ezell Blair Jr. & Joe McNeil - the Greensboro Four - made headlines for refusing to leave a segregated lunch counter in Greensboro, NC.
Young activists must always remember the power they have to ignite change!
My name is Eric Gash. "Trickle-down" Republicans have destroyed the middle class. Chip in to help us rebuild from the ground up! https://t.co/cyJfnsIV6B
In honor of every black leader who has dared to stand and speak, in honor of every black man and woman who fought to cast their vote — Black History Month stands as a testament to the fact that freedom isn't free.
Humbled and grateful for all the new followers here!
If we haven't met yet, my name is Eric Gash. My current Congressman, Madison Cawthorn, does not represent my community, my faith, or my democratic values.
Please like and RT to help me replace him in November!
My wife and I signed up for our free at-home Covid tests last night - have you? It took less than a minute!

I commend these guys for using their platforms to lift our voices!
Some issues simply boil down to right vs wrong. Opportunity for full, lawful participation must not only be explicitly afforded and permitted, but actively guaranteed and protected for ALL.

The party who claims to be concerned with voter confidence in our elections is awfully chaotic with the maps, dates, and rules this year...
It doesn't have to be this way, @NCGOP. Just draw fair maps and let us run fair races.
I’m old enough to remember when public health was seen as a civic duty and not a threat to personal freedom. We - and our frontline workers - can't afford to keep waiting for this thing to disappear on its own.
