A powerful voice representing Michigan’s 13th Congressional District, in 2018 Representative Rashida Tlaib and her colleague Representative Ilhan Omar were the first two Muslim women ever elected to the U.S. Congress, and they have not shied away from speaking up for our communities.

The #CentralParkFive were innocent, but they were profiled, coerced, and convicted to feed and illustrate a narrative of fear about their communities. Exonerated 12 years later, Dr. Salaam transformed tragedy into advocacy and despair into hope.
