In honor of Seattle raising their minimum wage to $15/hour, allow me to share with you three members of the city council that came to this decision and who should be more widely recognized in general:

Kshama Sawant: Indian socialist woman [x]

Bruce Harrell: biracial (black/Japanese) man [x]

Sally J Clark: white lesbian woman [x]

Because you know they’re not going to be given credit over the other, more “appropriate” members of the council (being white men/women).
