“We're going to keep talking about the issues that are facing black communities across the state. The attack on voting rights, this maternal mortality crisis, which is three times deadlier for black women. We're going to be talking about the funding gap with HBCUs and bringing the funding for our historically black colleges and universities up to parity. We're going to keep talking about housing affordability and universal health care and ensuring that we can all get by in this economy.” (16:44–16:53)
