As a legislator, I don't play politics. I study, listen, and vote my conscience. Those values are absent in Washington today and it's tearing us apart.

I'm running as a Democrat to represent #NC09 in the U.S Congress and finally mend our divided spirits.
The pundits and politicians want us to believe that America is at war with itself. I don’t accept that. When we come together as neighbors, we can knock down the walls of hate and oppression. Join me in this fight and let's forge a new path ahead. secure.actblue.com/donate/gra_tw_…

When I was just a boy, the KKK announced a night rally in my home county of Robeson, NC -- a poor farming community made up of Black, white, and American Indian folks like my family -- proud members of the Lumbee tribe.
The Klan called us “mongrels” and “half breeds". Despite warnings from the police chief that our community would not tolerate their hate, fifty Klansmen arrived at Hayes Pond on the night of January 18, 1958. Not a bad turnout for a winter evening.
The only problem is they were greeted by 400 Lumbees - barbers, sharecroppers, even expectant mothers -- ready to defend their neighbors and strike back against the Klan’s bigotry and intimidation.
