repbeatty 🎉 Today, we proudly celebrate the 100th birthday of the incomparable #shirleychisholm! As the first Black woman elected to Congress and the first Black person to seek a major party’s nomination for president, Shirley Chisholm shattered barriers and redefined leadership. Her motto, Unbought and Unbossed, still resonates as a call to courage and conviction in the fight for equality. This historic moment is being celebrated not just in the U.S., but in Barbados and beyond —a testament to her enduring legacy and global impact. Her trailblazing journey inspires us to dream bigger and fight harder for justice. Recognized by the U.S. Capitol Society in their book Outstanding Women Members of Congress, her groundbreaking career set the standard for bold leadership.
