Day 15 of Black History Month challenge: One black history post everyday for the entire month. . . She attended Neuqua Valley High School and later earned a Bachelors of Science in Nursing from the University of Michigan in 2008. She then received two master degrees from Johns Hopkins University in 2009. In June 2010, Underwood began a career in public service at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. She began her political career as a policy health professional in the Obama administration in 2014, where she worked to implement the Affordable Care Act. . . Endorsed by former President Barack Obama and the support of constituents in a predominantly white district, Underwood won the 14th District in the U.S. House of Representatives in November 2018 and was one of several women of color to ride the blue wave of victory to Washington D.C. Underwood’s focus remains access to high quality, affordable health care for all Americans, creation of high paying jobs, and a strong local economy. Underwood continues to be a very active member of Congress. . . #blackpolitics #blackwomeninpolitics #houseofrepresentatives #ushouseofrepresentatives #departmentofhealth #14district #underwood #chicagoillinois #blackwomenincharge #blackgirlmagic #blackwomenareeducated #bossblackwomen (at Mayfield, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8mWBCLAZj7/?igshid=1pxjw8k2nxta6

The Yamps want to highlight Lori Elaine Lightfoot, a lawyer and reform expert. She made history today after being sworn in as Chicago's first black woman mayor and openly gay mayor. Let's follow her campaign slogan and allow it to light our path for a better tomorrow, "It's time to bring in the light". How will you “bring in the light” in your life? Comment below and let the Yamps know! . . . . #BlackGirlMagic #MelaninMonday #TheYampReport #BringInTheLight #BlackWomenInPolitics #HERstory https://www.instagram.com/p/BxsR97TJP5k/?igshid=1lhcbst73p8z0

#BCProud of our students finding their own opportunities ⬇️ ⤵️ from @blackgirlswirl - Today I received the amazing opportunity to be a part of the Annual League of Women Voters Conference. Our exceptional keynote speaker featured former Florida Governor and Senator, Bob Graham, whom is one of my biggest inspirations in pursuing politics. Today I also learned he is one of my greatest supporters. Interacting with him and the exceptional women and men of this fantastic organization was an experience I would relive all over again. In this first picture I am holding a signed copy of one of his greatest books “America The Owner’s Manual” 📖 #leagueofwomenvoters #preservingdemocracy #blackwomeninpolitics #bobgraham #BCSouth https://www.instagram.com/p/BwyKTCBnDJy/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=pi0m2p93lkvh

She Who Keeps Culture: The Being of Black Female Form and American Politics
She Who Keeps Culture: The Being of Black Female Form and American Politics
In 2012, Shonda Rhimes, through the nationally syndicated ABC, introduced character Olivia Pope in a show named Scandal. The role, modeled after real-life DC Fixer Judy Smith who was active during the Bush administration, garnered national traction for its strong black female lead.

#TheseMfHere #smdh from @theemerged - Meet 25 year old Danye Jones of St. Louis, MO. His mother, Melissa MCkinnies, is an activist for Ferguson and St. Louis. On the night of October 17, 2018, her son was hanged in her backyard. Law enforcement officials are trying to rule it as a suicide, but make no mistake about it. This is a lynching. We have seen this story play out time and time again. Just like with Willie Andrew Jones Jr. in Mississippi. This isn’t 1918. This is NOW!! When will we wake up!? #TheEmerged #WeCanGrowYou📶 - #wtf #whitetterrorist #whitefolkscrazy #WhiteLiesMatter #policebrutality #whiteterrorism #politics #police #policeterrorism #politicking #TYT #TheYoungTurks #MaxineWaters #CongressWoman #BlackWomen #BlackWomenInPolitics #BlackPoliticians #California #trump #StLouis https://www.instagram.com/p/BpnTEmIhm_K/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=asj7fwbk4m47

Black women never experience just racism or sexism, they are both used to demean and dehumanize.

“Black Women are still out here trying to break through the glass ceilings that lay before us and on May 22, 2018 another crack was put in that ceiling when Stacey Abrams clinched the Democratic Nomination for Governor of Georgia. She did this by winning roughly 76.5% of the votes while her counterpart earned only 23.5%.” Read more about Stacey’s win at http://www.lelavictoria.com/blackwomenlead-stacey-abrams-has-won-the-democratic-nomination-for-governor-of-georgia/ #BlackWomenLead #StaceyAbrams #Governor #Georgia #Democrat #BlackGirlMagic #BlackWomenInPolitics
