'This wholesale reimagining of our public institutions will take political leadership willing to stand up for racial justice — not just after national outcries, but always.' –MondaireJones
in cities across the country. If state and local governments refuse to provide for their citizens, the federal government must.
This wholesale reimagining of our public institutions will take political leadership willing to stand up for racial justice — not just after national outcries, but always. Take my election, for example. My competition in the Democratic Primary could not even be bothered to pay lip service to racial justice before protests broke out in New York on May 28. In a field of seven candidates, I was the only one to have a criminal-justice reform policy plan before protests began.
Black people shouldn’t have to take to the streets for our elected officials to lift the boot off of our throats. That’s why we need people in office for whom policy is personal, for whom racial injustice is always an urgent issue, because we have to live it every day of our lives. The problems we face are human-made, and they can be solved. A better world can be ours if we fight for it. That is the fight I will bring to Congress.
