More important than the details of the story was Chisholm’s repetition of it. She wanted it known that she was the people’s candidate. Black women of small means wanted her to represent them in the national government. Anastasia Curwood⁩ ⁦Smithsonian Magazine⁩ smithsonianmag.com/history/the-tr…

Here we go! I will just camp out at my mailbox now and wait for the box… #shirleychisholm

Our son has been missing in the California Bay Area (Oakland) since Nov. 17th. He drives a 2020 Black Jeep Gladiator and is in need of medical attention. A reward of $15,000 is being offered for information that directly leads to his return. Please share with your networks.

#ShirleyChisholm and her mother, aunt, sisters, and cousins were originally scheduled to sail on the Vestris's last voyage. According to family lore, Chisholm's mother had a vision that disaster would occur, and they changed their tickets. smithsonianmag.com/history/lionel… @smithsonianmag
