#checkitout @ewarren came in 2nd (behind 2 pp who tied for first) in Iowa. 1/ #Warren2020

.@ewarren is 3rd in the delegate count right now. 2/ #Warren2020

The two candidates who surged in NH are both white Midwesterners who struggle to understand and connect about Black and Brown voters. 3/ #Warren2020

.@ewarren is the only candidate that has consistently listened and responded to the struggles within Black and Brown communities throughout her entire public life. 4/ #Warren2020

The 1st two states were largely secular. Faith-rooted voting was not as important. But Nevada’s/South Carolina’s Latino/Black populations are devout. @ewarren was a Methodist Sunday School teacher whose public work has been deeply rooted in her faith. 5/ #Warren2020

.@ewarren demonstrated ability to listen and admit when wrong when she misspoke abt her Native heritage. The only current major candidate to attend the #NativeAmericanPresidentialForum, she apologized and was welcomed back into relationship. 6/ #Warren2020 nytimes.com/2019/08/19/us/…

We have only heard from 2 small, white states. We have 48 to go!!

And Black women (the base of the base of the Democratic Party) have not yet spoken.

We-will-not-be-silenced.
