“The Sergeant at Arms blocks Representative Justin Pearson from Memphis from entering a committee meeting about redrawing the map specifically for the district he represents.

A white officer with a badge, blocking a black congressional member, from joining meeting that specifically targets the black district meant to give representation to people of color.

The segregation is alive and well in the south.” - Brian Garlick

@tillmanreuter yep. Are you saying I wouldn't face the same repercussions as a black man? If so, I recognize that and agree with you.

I can't make decisions for other people or know what I would do if my identity were different than what it is.
