On Capitol Hill, black women leaders gathered Tuesday in defense of Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, one of the first two Muslim congresswomen in history and the first member of Congress to wear a hijab. Omar says death threats against her have spiked in number since President Trump tweeted a video juxtaposing her image with footage of the 9/11 attacks. Democracy Now! was at Tuesday’s “Hands Off Ilhan Omar” event; we’ll play excerpts from it later in the broadcast and then go to Capitol Hill to speak with Congressmember Omar.
