.@FoxNews loves quoting Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to defend Stephen Miller's attacks on black farmers. This is what Dr. King actually said about the historical racism in our agricultural system.
Let’s represent Texas in Cincinnati! Join TYD as a delegate at the @youngdems Convention in August!

76-year-old Gwen Levi just wanted to take a word processing class.
It got her sent back to prison for “escaping” her home release program.

Happy 93rd Birthday to my dear friend Rev. Bill Lawson! From his civil rights work to founding @WheelerAvenueBC to showing up to marches in the last year, Rev. Lawson continues to fight for justice and freedom. Thankful for his leadership and guidance.
Thanks to @POTUS Biden's leadership, we have secured a historic, bipartisan infrastructure agreement that will invest in public transit, make high-speed internet more accessible, deliver clean drinking water, and MUCH MORE—all without raising taxes for middle-class families.
@TydBlack@texasdemocrats There are not enough words I can say to thank the Black Caucus!
As I wrote in my email to Democrats today, “I may be the first Black executive director for this party, but I won’t be the last. One day, “firsts” like me will be the norm in Texas.”
I am honored to make history and lead the @texasdemocrats with @hannahroebeck!
Hannah is the Party’s youngest executive director and I am the Party’s first Black executive director.
Ready to work to build the governing power to make a real difference in Texans’ everyday lives.
I believe there is a place for conservative / moderate voices in the Texas Democratic Party. I also believe we do not have to abandon Democratic values to do so. The question is whether the party wants to make room and broaden our coalition.
Many congratulations to our longtime caucus member and conscience, @JamarrBrown!
We know @texasdemocrats are in good hands. Congratulations again, Deacon!
Congratulations to Odus Evbagharu, @iamodus_ , the new Chair of the Harris County Democratic Party! I look forward to the next chapter of @harrisdemocrats under your leadership!
Much work to be done for 2022, but we know you’re up for it 💪🏾💪🏾.
Texas continues to lag in vaccinations, especially in rural counties.
What are our Governor and Lt. Governor doing to ensure more Texans are getting vaccinated before the Delta variant takes hold?
What are they doing to combat vaccine misinformation?
Nothing.
