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. Rashida knows that progress requires an all-out approach, fighting in the community and in the legislature every day against injustice and inequality, so that every single person in this country has a chance to thrive.

Yusef Salaam was only 15 years old when he was sentenced to prison for a crime he didn’t commit. 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.
