John,



With less than five weeks until Justice Democrat Rashida Tlaib’s primary,
the establishment is attacking her for standing with the people.

This week, the Detroit Police leadership ran to Fox News to complain about
Rashida’s support for Black Lives Matter protesters in the face of police
violence, in Detroit and across the country. Their latest attack comes on
the heels of Detroit police driving violently through a crowd of
protesters. After video footage clearly showed this life-endangering
behavior, Rashida called for accountability. It’s clear that the Detroit
police would rather try to discredit Rashida instead of embracing these
calls for accountability.

While Rashida Tlaib has supported uprisings against police violence and
systemic anti-Black racism, her opponent has consistently sided with
police and against Black Lives Matter protesters.

In response to a call to drop charges against Black Lives Matter
protesters, Rashida’s opponent, a local public official, said, “It would
be improper for me to interfere with proceedings in the legal world,” even
though holding law enforcement accountable and pushing for change are well
within the role of public officials. She even went so far as to call
protesters “entitled,” saying, “I will not support this mindset of
entitlement or special privilege given to one group over another group.”

That’s not leadership. That’s propping up an unjust status quo, a status
quo that folks have been in the streets calling to be dismantled and
transformed. We need leaders with political imagination, who work with
social movements to dream bigger and fight for a better world.
