On a recent sleepy afternoon inside the Georgia State Capitol, Stacey Abrams was wearing a meticulous twist-out and standing near the well of the house. She was speaking to 35 black students, mostly teenagers.
The 43-year-old legislator had the students participate in a mock debate over a bill she named “HB1,” which proposed to outlaw peanut butter from school grounds. Abrams slow-walked through the particulars of the bill, halting when floor procedure was broken. (A complicated sequence confused one of the young students, and Abrams leaned her six-foot frame leaning down to tell her not to worry. “You've got people who have been here for four years who still don't understand that.”) The “bill” was killed on the floor and the kids applauded.
Stacey Abrams Wants To Be The First Black Woman Governor. But First She Has To Win The Nomination.
Why not have them participate in a vaccine debate instead? Say, maybe, their thoughts on the apparent link between food allergies and vaccination?
Funny that she named her proposed bill "HB1". Also interesting that "BUZZ FEED" (food for the hive mentality) uses the words complicated, confused, worry, killed, mock, outlaw, black, twist-out....all in one paragraph. She likes pasta, doesn't have kids, is 6 feet tall, and the writer situated her next to a well in the opening sentence (water source).
