It's an important question that we need to ask because the extremists have a very different vision as to where they're trying to take this country at this time.
We wanna move the country forward.
The extremists are trying to turn back the clock.
We're working hard to bring people together.
The extremists are doing everything they can to tear us apart.
We believe in truth and reconciliation.
The extremists want to erase our history.
But let's be clear, black history is American history.
We will never let them erase it.
We've been here since 1619.
That's before America was America.
And we're not going anywhere, not now, not ever.
No matter what these extremists are trying to do with their all-out assault on civil rights, on voting rights, certainly on diversity, equity, and inclusion.

They want to suggest that diversity, equity, and inclusion are foreign values.
They're not foreign values.
They're American values.
