When we say, "The kids aren't ready to talk about [type of injustice]," what do we mean? That kids facing racism aren't ready to talk about it? That we want to protect privileged kids or ourselves from truth? That we aren't ready to facilitate the conversation? Something else?

Some folks are saying I won for “demographic” reasons.
1st of all, that’s false. We won w/voters of all kinds.
2nd, here’s my 1st pair of campaign shoes. I knocked doors until rainwater came through my soles.
Respect the hustle. We won bc we out-worked the competition. Period.

The Holocaust was legal. Slavery was legal. Segregation was legal.
The brave woman who cared for and hid my 6 year-old aunt in an attic in Budapest was a criminal. She broke the law by sheltering Juden.
Legality is not a guide for morality.

Remember this is the wealthiest country in history. We should not have children in poverty. We should not have people without health care.
