Something you may have missed

During the hubbub of all the insanity taking place during the midterm elections and the media gloating over being right about predicting(and somewhat helping) a republican victory everyone kinda missed a historic moment. The historic moment I'm talking about comes in the form of freshman congressman Hansen Clarke who represents Michigan's 13th district,a district that I happen to live in. Why is he so historic? Well outside of beating longtime congresswoman and the mother of former mayor Kwame Kilpatrick,Carolyn Cheeks-Kilpatrick,he's also the very first Bangladeshi-American elected to congress. Want to learn more about the congressman that still stays just blocks away from where I used to live? Click on his photo below.
