Omar

Ilhan Omar, AOC and several other progressive women of color in congress now face a tsunami of threats from Republican haters. Omar is in physical danger, so what are the Democratic leaders doing about it? 

What we hear from Pelosi, Obama and the like is that these new women of color should step back. They need to adopt a more modest, centrist position, which will help the party win elections (really?). In fact, AOC and Omar had best shut up. Don't jostle the fancy people.
