Rashida Tlaib on Addressing Democratic Socialists of America: ‘I Just Feel Like I’m with Family’

EXCERPT:

TLAIB: “It's like being with family and just being with people that understand when my tears come down, it's because it's just been very painful, just watching not only what Trump is doing, but just even before that, the political systems have been set up in a way that continues to silence us or continue to, I don't know, just make us feel less than in our own country. So it's just been overwhelming. I mean, just watching everything online now, the ICE, you know, thugs and just hearing all the stories. And I can tell you just images after images, you don't have to be an immigrant. You don't have to be Palestinian. You don't have to be a Democrat or part of a political party. People do not want to continue to watch people fund this kind of extraction.”
