Tamika Mallory is widely known for her role as one of the four leaders of the first Women’s March, when thousands of protesters filled the streets of Washington D.C. after the inauguration of President Trump. Both prior to and following the first Women’s March, Mallory has consistently used her fierce energy and knowledge to lead others in the movement for equality.
After the recent death of George Floyd and widespread uprisings against police brutality, Mallory has once again taken the stage as a leader and freedom fighter. In a viral speech, she urged for violent police officers to be charged not just in Minneapolis, but throughout the country, saying “charge them in every city across America where our people are being murdered.”
Watch her speech below:
“America has looted black people. America looted the Native Americans when they first came here, looting is what you do. We learned it from you. We learned violence from you. If you want us to do better, then damnit, you do better.” —Tamika Mallory, Nat. Co-Chair of Women’s March pic.twitter.com/EP2VpnCYMw
