SLAVERY. THE LEGAL SUBJUGATION
BEATING AND BREAKING A BLACK
BODY. REFLECT ON THE CIVIL WAR
JUNETEENTH. THE BLACK COAT. HERE
IN THIS BODY IT'S IMPORTANT WE
REFLECT. ON THE FACT THAT
DESPITE NOT BEING A SLAVE STATE
. CALIFORNIA HAS ONE OF THE MOST
DRACONIAN FUGITIVE SLAVE LAWS IN
EXISTENCE. AND TO THIS DAY WE
SPEND MORE MONEY INCARCERATING
BLACK PEOPLE THAN NEARLY ANY
OTHER STATE IN THE UNION. WE
CAN'T TURN A COLOR BLIND EYE TO
THE ANTI BLACKNESS. THAT IS
PRODUCING ON HEALTH POPULATION.
THAT IS NEARLY SEVEN TIMES BLACK
OF THE GENERAL POPULATION. BLACK

SOLIDARITY WITH EACH OTHER TO
ACHIEVE PROGRESS IN EDUCATIONAL
ATTAINMENT ECONOMIC ADVANCEMENT
ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE AND MANY
OTHERS ISSUES UNIQUELY IMPACTING
BLACK AND BROWN FAMILIES.
SIMILARLY OVER THE LAST TWO
YEARS OUR COMMUNITIES HAVE
GRIEVED TOGETHER HAVING
EXPERIENCED THE HIGHEST RATES OF
COVERT NINETEEN RELATED
HOSPITALIZATIONS AND DEATH. WE
ARE STILL HEALING FROM THE
LOSSES IN OUR COMMUNITIES AND
TOGETHER WE ARE UPLIFTING ONE
ANOTHER TO CREATE A BRIGHTER
MORE JUST FUTURE. IN ADDITION
THIS MONTH WE REFLECT ON THE
INTERSECTION ALITY OF OUR
COMMUNITIES. ACCORDING TO A
TWENTY TWENTY ONE P. REPORT
CALIFORNIA IS NOW THE THIRD TOP
STATE OF RESIDENCE FOR AFRO
LATINOS IN THE COUNTRY. WE
CELEBRATE THOSE IN OUR STATE WHO
IDENTIFY AS AFRO LATINO AND
HIGHLIGHT THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTS
AS WELL. EVERY FEBRUARY WE HAVE
THE OPPORTUNITY TO RECOGNIZE THE

AMERICAN COMMUNITY HAS IMPARTED
ON OUR GREAT STATE. AND WE
RECOMMIT OURSELVES TO IMPROVING
OUR COMMUNITIES TOGETHER. ON
BEHALF OF THE LATINO CAUCUS I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE VOTE
ON THIS RESOLUTION. THANK YOU
ASSEMBLY MEMBER TEAM YOU ARE

OF THE HEALTH OF THE DPR
LEGISLATIVE CAUCUS IN SUPPORT OF
ACR. ONE FORTY THREE. WALL ASIAN
AMERICANS HAVE BEEN HERE IN THE
STATES OF. SINCE THE BEGINNING
OF THE GOLD RUSH OVER A HUNDRED
AND SEVENTY YEARS AGO. WE'VE
PRIMARILY BEEN COMING SINCE
IMMIGRATION REOPENED IN THE
NINETEEN SIXTIES. WHILE MANY
ASIAN AMERICANS STOOD ARM IN ARM
WITH AFRICAN AMERICANS DURING.
THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT AND
DURING THE CIVIL RIGHTS STRUGGLE
IN THE FIFTIES IN THE SIXTIES.
REALLY THE BULK OF OUR-
IMMIGRATION GROWTH ABOUT
POPULATION GROWTH HAS REALLY
BEEN AFTERWARDS. AND SO WHILE
WE'VE. EDUCATE MANY OUR
COMMUNITY ABOUT THE BENEFITS
THAT WE ALL GET BECAUSE SO MANY
PEOPLE DIED IN FOUGHT PROTESTERS
DURING THOSE VERY YEARS TO GET
UP TO GET MORE EQUITY. TO GET
MORE OPENNESS TO GET MORE
FAIRNESS WHERE THERE WAS A
HOUSING WITH EDUCATION WITH
THERE'S AN EMPLOYMENT IN EVERY
FACET OF AMERICAN LIFE THAT
TRADITIONALLY. WAS CLOSED. SO ON
THIS DAY THIS IS VERY MUCH MY
HONOR TO RISE. IN RECOGNITION OF
BLACK HISTORY MONTH BECAUSE
BLACK HISTORY IS REALLY AMERICAN
HISTORY IT'S UNFORTUNATE THAT WE
HAVE TO HAVE. A SEPARATE MONTH
BECAUSE SO MUCH OF THIS HISTORY
HAS BEEN EXCLUDED. IT IS WHY
WE'VE ALL STAYED HERE LAST
COUPLE YEARS TALKING ABOUT
ETHNIC STUDIES. IMPORTANCE OF
REALLY NERD LEARNING ABOUT OUR
HISTORY. BECAUSE SO MUCH OF IT
IS NOT FOUGHT IN OUR SCHOOLS HOW
MUCH IS NOT TAUGHT IN OUR
UNIVERSITIES. THE STRUGGLES.
THAT WE GOT TO THIS POINT.
BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE LAID
DOWN THEIR LIVES A LOT OF PEOPLE
FALL IN A LOT OF PEOPLE. RISKED
THEIR LIVELIHOODS TO ENSURE.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND THE STRUGGLE
OF BLACK AMERICANS WE'RE TRULY
AS HAS BEEN SAID BEFORE THIS IS
SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE TAUGHT
AND APPRECIATED EVERY SINGLE DAY
. UNTIL THOSE STRUGGLES AND
CLEARLY THEY HAVE NOT. AS WE
CONTINUE TO FIGHT TOWARDS A MORE
JUST FUTURE WE HAVE TO DO MORE
TO ENSURE THAT OUR COUNTRY
CONTINUES TO HONOR THE
CONTRIBUTIONS EVERY SINGLE DAY
OF BLACK AMERICANS. NOW WE ALL
KNOW ABOUT THE INFLUENTIAL BLACK
LEADERS AT A PAVE THE WAY
TOWARDS EQUALITY AND JUSTICE
MARTIN LUTHER KING. PRESIDENT
OBAMA AND MANY MANY OTHERS BUT
THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO EVERY
SINGLE DAY STRUGGLE PEROT KLAY
AND WORK TOWARDS THE BETTERMENT
OF THEIR COMMUNITY AND ALL OF
AMERICA AND OFTEN THAT STRUGGLE.
AND THAT WORK GOES ON HE DID.
THERE ARE THOSE AFRICAN
AMERICANS WHO HAVE TO FACE THOSE
STRUGGLES EVERY DAY AND
HISTORICALLY AND THIS IS THE
MONTH WHERE THEY ARE CELEBRATED.
BLACK HISTORY MONTH ALLOWS US
THE OPPORTUNITY TO REFLECT ON
OUR COUNTRY'S PAST BUT REMINDS
US THAT WE STILL HAVE SO MUCH
WORK TO DO. NO HISTORICALLY
JEWISH COMMUNITIES HAVE BEEN. A
LARGE VOICE AN ALLY IN THE
STRUGGLE FOR INTEGRATION. BOTH
IN HOUSING AND CIVIL RIGHTS AND
PARTICULARLY FOR THE INTEGRATION
OF WORKPLACES AND FOR THE RIGHT
TO ORGANIZE. IN THE LATE
NINETEEN FIFTIES A SMALL CHAU
UNION CALLED LOCAL ELEVEN NINETY
NINE LED BY JEWISH ACTIVISTS
LEON DATE DAVIS WORKED ALONGSIDE
BLACK IMPORTER RICAN HOSPITAL
WORKERS IN NEW YORK AS THEY
STRUGGLE TO ORGANIZE. AND I'LL
TAKE A POINT OF PERSONAL PRIDE
AND MENTIONED MY OWN COUSIN
ARTHUR OSMAN. THE FIRST COUSIN
OF MY GRANDFATHER ROBERT OSMAN.
AND A FAMILY PHOTO WE HAVE OF
HIM THAT'S THAT'S VISIBLE ON THE
INTERNET- MARCHING WITH MARTIN
LUTHER KING AS HE WORKED TO BE
ONE OF THE FIRST UNIONS IN NEW
YORK CITY. GOING WAY BACK IN THE
NINETEEN FIFTIES AND FORTIES TO
INTEGRATE AS JEWS WERE HAVING
THEIR OWN STRUGGLE TO PROTECT
THEIR OWN WORKERS AS RECENT
IMMIGRANTS INTO THE UNITED
STATES. AND THOSE WHO WERE
FLEEING THE HOLOCAUST IN THE
SURVIVORS OF THE HOLOCAUST
FACING THEIR OWN ADVERSITY. THEY
ALSO REACHED OUT TO THEIR BLACK
NEIGHBORS TO SAY WE HAVE A
SHARED STRUGGLE WE HAVE SO MUCH
IN COMMON IN THIS FIGHT. AGAINST
OTHER NESS AND
DISENFRANCHISEMENT AND THEY
WORKED ARM IN ARM WITH BLACK
LEADERS IN THE LABOR MOVEMENT
FOR THE RIGHTS OF ALL WORKERS
AND ALL AMERICANS AND THAT'S
SOMETHING THAT. MANY OF US IN
THE JEWISH CMMUNITY C. AS A
GREAT SOURCE OF PRIDE AND OF
INSPIRATION. I ALSO WANT TO
CELEBRATE TODAY AND TO
ACKNOWLEDGE. THE VOICES OF THE
BLACK JEWISH COMMUNITY AND AS
THE MOTHER OF A BLACK TO. THAT'S
SOMETHING THAT'S ESPECIALLY
MEANINGFUL TO ME- AND A SOURCE
AGAIN OF PRIDE FOR SO MANY IN
OUR COMMUNITY TO RECOGNIZE THE
BLACK JEWS IN THE JEWISH
COMMUNITY BOTH HERE IN AMERICA.
AND ABROAD IN ISRAEL AND
ETHIOPIA AND SO MANY PLACES
AROUND THE WORLD. WITHOUT AYE
URGENT AYE VOTE ON ACR ONE FORTY
THREE AND I THINK MY COLLEAGUE
FROM LOS ANGELES FOR BRINGING
THE RESOLUTION FORWARD. THANK
YOU MISS FRIEDMAN THIS WHEREVER
YOU ARE RECOGNIZED AT YOUR DESK. GOOD MORNING MR SPEAKER AND
MEMBERS I RISE ON BEHALF OF THE
LEGISLATIVE WOMEN'S CAUCUS. AND
IS A PROUD POLL AUTHOR IN
SUPPORT OF ACR ONE FORTY THREE
TO RECOGNIZE FEBRUARY AS BLACK
HISTORY MONTH. ACK
MONTH IS AN IMPORTANT TIME FOR
US TO ALL REFLECT ON THE RICH
CONTRIBUTIONS BLACK PEOPLE HAVE
MADE IN THE HISTORY OF OUR
NATION. CELEBRATING BLACK
HISTORY MONTH REMINDS US NOT
JUST HOW FAR WE'VE TRAVELED BUT
ALSO HOW FAR WE MUST GO. WE
CANNOT CELEBRATE BLACK HISTORY
MONTH WITHOUT ALSO RECOGNIZING
THEIR RESILIENCE STRENGTH AND
CONTRIBUTIONS A BLACK WOMAN.
BLACK WOMEN HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AT
THE FRONT LINES OF EVERY
MOVEMENT WHETHER IT WAS THE
ABOLITION MOVEMENT CIVIL RIGHTS
SUFFRAGE MOVEMENTS LGBTQ RIGHTS
AND SO MANY MORE. AND YET WE ARE
ALL OFTEN NOT RECOGNIZED FOR OUR
PIVOTAL ROLE. NAMES SUCH AS
SOJOURNER TRUTH IDA B. WELLS
HELLO BAKER AND SHIRLEY CHISHOLM
IMMEDIATELY COME TO MIND. THE
TWENTY TWENTY TWO NATIONAL BLACK
HISTORY THEME IS BLACK HEALTH
AND WELLNESS. AND I BELIEVE THIS
THEME IS FITTING TO LIFT UP THE
NAME REBECCA LEE CRUMPLER. AND I
HOPE THAT YOU WILL ALL COME TO
KNOW THIS NAME AND FIGURE. DR
CRUMPLER WAS THE FIRST BLACK
FEMALE PHYSICIAN IN THE UNITED
STATES. OPENING HER PRACTICE IN
BOSTON IN EIGHTEEN SIXTY FOUR.
DR CUMPLIR PAVE THE WAY FOR SO
MANY BLACK FEMALE PHYSICIANS TO
EXIST TODAY. INCLUDING ME. TODAY
WOMEN REPRESENT 35% F ALL
DOCTORS BUT UNFORTUNATELY BLACK
WOMEN PHYSICIANS STILL ONLY RENT
REPRESENT 223% THIS IS AN
EXAMPLE OF HISTORY HOW HIS
REMINDER OF HOW FAR WE'VE COME
BUT HOW FAR WE MUST STILL GO.
EXPERIENCING BLACK HISTORY EVERY
YEAR REMINDS US THAT HISTORY IS
NOT DEAD OR DISTANT FROM OUR
LIVES. IT IS AS MUCH ABOUT TODAY
AS IT IS THE PAST. I ENCOURAGE
EVERYONE TO TAKE THE TIME TO
READ THE LANGUAGE OF THIS
RESOLUTION. THAT NOT ONLY
DETAILS THE ORIGINS OF BLACK
HISTORY MONTH BUT ALSO DISCUSSES
CALIFORNIA'S BLACK HISTORY AND
THE HISTORY THAT CONTINUES TO BE
MADE. HONORING THE ACHIEVEMENTS
OF HISTORICAL FIGURES OF BLACK
WOMEN SUCH AS DR SHIRLEY WEBER
WHO HAS BECOME OUR STATE'S FIRST
BLACKS SERVING SECRETARY OF
STATE. KAMALA HARRIS OF THE
NATION'S FIRST BLACK WOMAN VICE
PRESIDENT AND SO MANY MORE. AND
ALTHOUGH THERE'S A LOT TO
CELEBRATE. WHEN I LOOK OUT ON
THIS FLOOR MEMBERS. I HAVE TO
SAY THAT I DON'T SEE VERY MANY
FACES THAT LOOK LIKE ME. THERE
ARE ONLY THREE BLACK WOMEN IN
THE CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE.
THREE OUT OF A HUNDRED AND
TWENTY THREE. THIS SOBERING
TRUTH IS THAT BLACK WOMEN MUST
CONTINUE TO FIGHT AND SURVIVE
DESPITE MULTIPLE NUMBER OF
OBSTACLES IN OUR WAY.
ENCOUNTERING BOTH RACISM AND
SEXISM WE HAVE THE WORST WORST
BIRTHING OUTCOMES DYING AT RATES
UP TO FIVE TIMES MORE THAN OTHER
FEMALE COUNTERPART. AND DESPITE
A TWO THOUSAND FOURTEEN STUDIES
CITING BLACK WOMEN ARE THE MOST
EDUCATED AND BLACK AMERICANS. WE
ARE STILL UNDER REPRESENTED AND
HIGH RANKING AND HIGH WAGE
POSITIONS INCLUDING POLITICAL
OFFICE AND ARE OVER REPRESENTED
IN LOW WAGE JOBS AND UNDER
RESOURCE COMMUNITY. SO LET TODAY
AND THIS MONTH REMINDS YOU THAT
WE AS INDIVIDUALS AND A STATE
HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO ADVANCE
SOUND POLICY AND TAKE ACTION TO
BED TO DO BETTER FOR AND BY OUR
BLACK CONSTITUENTS. I WANT TO
CLOSE MY REMARKS BY QUOTING
LINING BIRCH THE FOUNDING
DIRECTOR OF THE NATIONAL MUSEUM
OF AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORY AND
CULTURE. THERE IS NO MORE
POWERFUL FORCE THAN A PEOPLE
STEEPED IN OUR HISTORY. AND
THERE IS NO HIGHER COSTS THAN
HONORING OUR STRUGGLE AND
ANCESTORS BY REMEMBERING. BLACK
HISTORY MONTH IS A TIME TO
CELEBRATE AND REMEMBER THE
FULLNESS OF AFRICAN AMERICAN
HISTORY AND CULTURE. AND THOUGH
IT COULD NOT BE CONTAINED IN ONE
MONTH ALONE I'M ENCOURAGED THAT
THE HEALING OF THIS NATION AND
THE STATE BEGINS THROUGH
EDUCATING OURSELVES AND EACH
OTHER. AND THAT AND FOR THOSE
REASONS I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR
YOUR VOTE AND ACR ONE FORTY
THREE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU

LEGISLATIVE CAUCUS. I THINK MY
COLLEAGUE FROM THE CULVER CITY
FOR RECOGNIZING MANY LEADERS IN
PARTICULAR MR RUFFIN WHO IS

MOVEMENT SPECIFICALLY LEADING US
IN THE LGBT COMMUNITY. I ONLY
THINK ABOUT THE COALITION THAT
IS REQUIRED OF THE INTERSECTION

REAFFIRM OUR COMMITMENT TO
RECOGNIZING THAT WITHIN THE LGBT
COMMUNITY IT IS ACTUALLY THAT OF
BLACK TRANS COMMUNITY MEMBERS
THAT ARE MOST VICTIMIZED AND
TARGETED. THE MOST VULNERABLE IN

COMMUNITY YES AS WE BEGAN EARLY
