As a 'first' for my district, I want to show a path forward for young people, especially young Black girls. Everybody should be able to visualize themselves in positions of power, whether in government or wherever their dreams take them. #BlackHistory365

Rep. Schriver’s persistent, baseless, & dangerous tweets demonstrate exactly what Black people & marginalized communities go through all too often: We have to be on guard for & responsive to racism, for our own survival, just because we exist. (1/3)

Racist rhetoric has no home in Michigan and exceeds the acceptable standards of this body. It will not be tolerated here. #NoHateInMIState

Speaker Tate demonstrated strong and decisive leadership yesterday by taking action to hold Rep. Schriver accountable for his reprehensible comments.

It is troubling that Rep. Schriver’s racist remarks on have been met with silence by Republican leaders in the legislature.

Today the @mi_lbc & Joe Tate held a press conference to denounce the racist & hate centered comments from one of our Republican colleagues last week. Collectively today our MI House Democrats & MI Senate Dems colleagues stood in solidarity against those hateful and racist comments.

Join us live as Michigan legislative Dems stand united to denounce racism and hate speech. #NoHateInMIState twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Today, we presented my portrait in the State Capitol. The first and only portrait of a Black woman in the Capitol building.

I pray it will inspire someone and helps pave a clearer path for the next generation of leaders. #BlackHistoryMonth #Mileg
