BREAKING: Michele Obama delivers a deeply moving and powerful response to the Republican-controlled Supreme Court's decision to outlaw affirmative action in university admission considerations.

Mrs. Obama, who is a graduate of both Princeton and Harvard, stated that she was "one of the few Black students" on her campus and she was "proud of getting into such a respected school" because she knew that she had "worked hard for it."

Even so, she "sometimes wondered" if there were people who assumed that she was only there because of affirmation action.

"It was a shadow that students like me couldn’t shake, whether those doubts came from the outside or inside our own minds," said Mrs. Obama.

"But the fact is this: I belonged. And semester after semester, decade after decade, for more than half a century, countless students like me showed they belonged, too," she went on.

She pointed out that it "wasn't just the kids of color who benefitted" from a system with affirmative action because it meant that students would encounter perspectives they had never heard before, have their assumptions challenged, and grow their hearts and minds.

The former First Lady then destroyed the Republican narrative that affirmative action creates an unfair playing field for White Americans.

She stated that there are countless other forms of "special consideration" that factor into admissions because some applicants have parents who attended the same university, others can afford coaches who help them strengthen their athletic talents, and others go to expensive high schools with tutors and test prep.

"We don't usually question if those students belong. So often, we just accept that money, power, and privilege are perfectly justifiable forms of affirmative action, while kids growing up like I did are expected to compete when the ground is anything but level," she said.

She ended by saying that this ruling is a "reminder that we've got to do the work not just to enact policies that reflect our values of equity and fairness, but to truly make those values real in all of our schools, workplaces, and neighborhoods."

Well f*cking said.

RT and ❤️ if you think that Michele Obama nailed it — and consider investing in Tribel, a “woke” new Twitter competitor that is currently doing a round of equity crowdfunding and just blew past $2.1 million raised from 4,500 of its users.

You can invest as little as $100 — or as much as you’d like. Here’s the link to download the new Tribel app that Elon Musk is so afraid of: https://t.co/HnJzSKjCwX

.@MarkWarner @TimKaine support the SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act (S.4102). Since 1989, the SSI asset limit has not been raised— forcing people w/ disabilities into poverty. It’s time to raise asset limits so that everyone can live with dignity and save for emergencies!
