“Don’t speak to me about your religion; first show it to me in how you treat other people. Don’t tell me how much you love God; show me in how much you love all His children” says Senator Booker.

On August 8th, Wednesday, we went to Senator Cory Booker’s office. As New Jersey’s first black senator, he first was elected in first 2013 and then got re-elected in 2014. While having an academic background in Stanford, Oxford, and Yale, he is a very active and influential person in society.

In his office, we met with Imani R. Oakley: a constituent Advocate at U.S. Senate. She is, indeed, is responsible for leading the Senator’s youth outreach. She opened her doors to us to discuss our future projects and our goals. The meeting was very efficient since we had a chance to both introduce ourselves and get an information on how we can be more productive in the society as DoNotHate and reach out to new people.

We believe we can only overcome hate and anything that comes from hate by reaching out to as many people as we can, especially the youth. Our beautiful differences make us unique in so many ways and they shouldn’t be used as a barrier to divide us into categories; instead, they should unite us.

We send our love and thanks to Senator Cory Booker and Imani R. Oakley for having us and supporting our journey! As United We Stand, we will defeat hate. Join us on our journey!
