Rashida Tlaib to Pro-Palestine Crowd: ‘Look at This Room Motherf*ckers, We Ain’t Going Anywhere’

EXCERPT:

TLAIB: “They thought they could kill us, rape us, imprison us, violently uproot us from our olive tree farms, starve our children to death and we would disappear. Well, guess what? Now we’re in Congress and we’re every corner of the United States. (cheers and applause) No, they just don’t get it. They just don’t get it. They will never truly comprehend, even after seven decades, that we aren’t going anywhere. We are just getting started. (cheers and applause) I want to say to all of them, every genocide enabler, look at this room, motherf***ers. We ain’t going anywhere! (cheers and applause) We are just growing and growing and growing. We are bringing siblings from other movements with us. Every corner of the city that raised me has shown me how to fight for civil rights and justice and against oppression.”
