I heard her speak today on Politics Nation as part of a special feature on Black History Month
I thought the reminder -- she is a March for Our Lives activist and spoke at one of their outdoor events (in the before times, when we had those; it wasn't that long ago but it might be fair to say that all the chaos has warped our collective sense of time) was inspirational given that in the face of all this backlash -- which has been seen before, literally each and every time minority citizenry makes any kind of progress toward approaching parity in the country -- it sometimes takes more than one generation, with all these reactionaries still in the population, to make progressive change.
