Education and #EducationEquity were my gateway issues into the #advocacy space. As a graduate of the nation’s #1 high school, I have always felt a sense of responsibility to advocate for #equity with regard to access to advanced academics. However, for EVERYONE to thrive, these spaces must become more inclusive as well. 📚👩🏾🏫 TONIGHT, join the Brothers of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc - Omicron Zeta Sigma Chapter, me, and other candidates vying to represent districts covering Prince William County (Virginia) as we discuss our ideas for enhancing #Education in our respective service areas. 👩🏻🎓👨🏽🎓🧑🏼🎓💙🤍💙 The Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. Omicron Zeta Sigma Chapter will host the Town Hall “Let’s Be Clear” Series informational meetings for the 2023 General Election in Prince William County, Virginia.#pbs1914 #Sigma109 #ozs1914 #pwcsigmas #socialaction #LetsBeClear
Accountability Matters
It’s beyond time for the Democratic Party—nationwide—to have some hard conversations about who we truly are and who we actually represent. 🪞
This lawsuit isn’t aimed at the Democratic Party of Virginia—or the Democratic National Committee in its entirety—only those within the party who have allowed themselves to become drunken by power to the point they feel they know what’s best for the people they claim to represent while also attempting to silence their voices. 🤫
I come from the post-9/11 “See Something, Say Something” generation, and laws only work when you enforce them. ⚖️
If you can’t lead while also listening, then get out the way. Our generation is prepared to take its place to fix what you have allowed to fester in our nation for far too long. 💼
The time is now to heal the divisions within our nation, and that begins with EVERYONE putting People over Politics. ✌🏾 #PowerToThePeople #DemocracyMatters #AccountabilityMatters #RightIsRight #WrongIsWrong

If I could pay for one more day of his voice and wisdom, I’d go broke doing so. Beyond grateful for the time we did have and for everything he taught me about standing alone for what’s right. ✊🏾 I know his spirit is still with me and I pray he’s smiling on the other side. 💜 #ElijahTaughtMe #June20 #VirginiaPrimary #Vote 🗳️

I will NEVER forget the smiles that greeted our team at the doors yesterday! 🤗🚪Yesterday was the first day we canvassed since our first mailer hit mailboxes in The New 19th 💌📬 One future constituent for whom #WomensEquity is a key issue even offered me a purple Iris from her garden. 🫂💜 Thanks to our Gibson Print family for partnering in a way that allowed us to put these two #GraphicDesign degrees to work and bring our vision to life AND to our District! 🫱🏼🫲🏾 Early voting starts in ONE WEEK!!! 🗳️💙
When the day gets away from you and you don’t have the opportunity to see your first billboard in person. 🪧👀 But one of your future constituents drives by, doubles back, pulls over, and sends you a recording of his first encounter and initial reaction. 🎥🤭 Thanks for having my back and making my day Mark Cannady 🤗
While serving at CIA, I met a Senior Intelligence Officer on the verge of retirement who decided to pass on gems of wisdom on his way out the door. He taught me there were 3 bins in which someone should be able to categorize their actions: 1) Helping people, 2) Solving problems, 3) Helping people solve problems. He said actions outside of that, “Chances are…you’ve been drunken by power.” Too many of our elected officials have allowed themselves to be drunken by power and lost (or never had) a heart for people. And THAT is why we’re running. 🕯️ #OurWhyJourney | Full recording of “41 Candles” Remarks available on our YouTube channel at youtube.com/@MakyaLittle
