#DidYouKnow? Wealth from the sale of enslaved Africans & their labor created global capitalism & set the economic foundation for Europe, the Caribbean & the Americas. @IPS_DC found that the avg Black family would need 228 yrs to obtain the wealth of a White family. #400YearsLater https://t.co/1ciRCpZn0F — PolitiTweet.org

Slavery in the US lasted 246 yrs. Enslaved African Americans worked 10+ hrs/day in dangerous conditions & often worked 18-hr days in peak cotton-picking & sugar harvesting seasons. The psychological & economic toll of slavery still has modern-day consequences. #400YearsLater https://t.co/e88Yt7v0Uc — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll be the last person standing before offshore oil drilling is expanded off the Florida coast! Proud to speak on the House Floor today on 3 bills to protect our environment, climate & the economies of coastal communities. I work #ForThePeople, not for the oil and gas industry! https://t.co/rYFEO0LAYu — PolitiTweet.org
