“One of the pathways to eradicating systemic inequities and systemic racism is to INVEST. Where you drew red lines, let’s green line, let’s spur jobs, let's spur investment, let's bring housing equality, let's bring education infrastructure, let's invest in the schools in my neighborhood.” -Lamell McMorris
