The 37-year-old Omar was elected to Congress in 2018 after a rapid rise through the state Legislature. Indeed, Omar reminds us all of what it means to fearlessly strive for a better life, a better nation, and a better world. She narrates about her fight against structural racism and injustice, and how America and the world can move forward. Her intensity and steadfastness against widening inequalities of income, wealth and political power that are undermining democracy and prosperity in America have inspired record numbers of young voters to join her political journey and “political revolution”. Omar is one of the women building that future today.
