In 1968, Shirley Chisholm made history as the first Black woman elected to the U.S. Congress, representing Brooklyn’s Bed-Stuy neighborhood.

In 1972, she broke barriers again as the first Black candidate to receive a major party nomination for President, running under her slogan “Unbought and Unbossed.”

Her campaign worked to build a coalition of everyday people – particularly women and people of color – grounded in the belief that casting a ballot is one of the most tangible ways to create a more representative government and demand accountability from elected leaders.

Today, Chisholm’s words are often cited as a reminder that voting is itself an act of power, especially for communities that have historically been underrepresented in American democracy.
