Role Model: Representative Ayanna Pressley

January 17, 2020 by WendyB

Rep. Ayanna Pressley is a groundbreaker: She’s the first woman of color to represent Massachusetts in Congress. Her election — which occurred during the “Blue Wave” of November 2018 that flipped the House to a Democratic majority — came nine years after she was voted in as the first woman of color to serve on the Boston City Council.

This week, she revealed a different kind of remarkable story to The Root. I urge you to watch the video till the end.
