On @MSNBC NOW, @K_JeanPierre talks about the @MoveOn moment at the #BigIdeas conference with @KamalaHarris when that man rushed the stage.
"I've spent the last 24-36 hrs processing this because it was a scary moment. I was thinking the VA Beach massacre happened the day before & we lost 12 souls. White supremacy hate crimes have increased in the last couple of yrs. I was thinking 'what is going on?'" ~@K_JeanPierre
"You see 3 WOC standing on stage, including a WOC running for POTUS. And we're talking about race and the gender gap. A white man with all of his privilege comes on stage and steps into our personal space. It was scary. The only thing I could think of was to act." ~@K_JeanPierre
"I thought: 'This was not going to happen today.' It is something that women have to deal with every day and it is a conversation that we need to be having. I've been shaken. But I would do it again because we have to stand up for each other." ~@K_JeanPierre #BigIdeas @MoveOn
