Rev. Frederick D. Haynes III, senior pastor of Friendship-West Baptist Church and President & CEO of the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, has won the Democratic primary for Texas’ 30th Congressional District. A lifelong advocate for civil rights, voting rights, and economic justice, Rev. Haynes has long served the people. We look forward to him continuing to fight for the people and speaking truth to power in Washington. 👏🏿

I put these two clips of Daddy together because I want to share him saying “I’m tired of marching,” then, after continuing the multifaceted work of nonviolence, saying “I’ve been to the mountaintop.”
The 2nd clip is from the speech he gave the night before he was assassinated.

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family. https://t.co/km7RXnDKcW
