I'm so proud of Senator Booker (and his staff) for breaking the longest filibuster record by speaking for people's rights for over 24 hours, not only because I support his message but because the record he broke was Strom Thurmond's filibuster against civil rights in 1957. The fact that a person of color broke a record held by a racist man by speaking on caring for all people
