Really, there is so much to say about what happened last night with Elizabeth Warren attempting to read Coretta Scott King’s letter, that it required two posts. Not because there’s any more information about the story, but more so the response to it from the public. Everyone was stricken by Mitch McConnell’s quote regarding Senator Warren, because it echoes so many of the stories surrounding women who have fought to bring about change.
Twitter used the words #ShePersisted as a way to commend Warren and the other women and even girls who weren’t so quick to give up.
