I prosecuted sex predators. Trump is one.
I shut down for-profit scam colleges. He ran one.
I held big banks accountable. He's owned by them.
I'm not just prepared to take on Trump, I'm prepared to beat him.

RISE is such an impactful program at @DavidsonCollege, and many @C2Initiative students take part in it. I’m glad RISE is finally getting the national attention it deserves.

Thanks for sharing the article! @Barsoumination has done such an amazing job as founder and program director. He's grown the program so much and given us STEM faculty the opportunity to research with these talented first year students!

Last night’s use of #SayHerName by Marjorie Taylor Greene during the SOTU Address reflects a deeply offensive trend in right-wing politics – the intentionally misleading appropriation of justice-seeking demands from those who have historically been rendered voiceless.

I was just discussing with a neighbor (with a PhD in neuroscience) how doctors turn studies about medical racism into more medical bias-- as a Black woman I get treated like my BLACKNESS puts me at more risk for health problems when the problem is the ANTI-BLACKNESS of doctors.
