Rep. Cori Bush, a Squad member, decided to rile people up. She wrote in a tweet:
It’s Juneteenth AND reparations. It’s Juneteenth AND end police violence + the War on Drugs. It’s JuneteenthAND end housing + education apartheid. It’s Juneteenth AND teach the truth about white supremacy in our country. Black liberation in its totality must be prioritized.
