Honoring the Women Who Have Come Before - July 18, 2019

[Fannie Lou Hamer] It’s time for us to do something about it and we need your support. We needed your votes because, if I’m elected as congresswoman, thing will be different. We are sick and tired of being sick and tired.

[Shirley Chisholm] I stand before you today, as a candidate for the Democratic nomination for the Presidency of the United States of America.

[Cori Bush] They haven’t been able to push me back or shut me up or sit me down yet. I’m standing here in pain, I’m standing here with a jacked up back and a jacked up neck and a jacked up pelvis – but I’m standing here because you’re worth it!

This is St. Louis. This is the diversity and the beauty of St. Louis. This is who we are, each and every light – this is the light of St. Louis, which is us. We are the light of St. Louis. Look around, this is the beauty.

We honor women in politics and activism – past, present, and future.

I’m Cori Bush and I approve this message.
