She was proof that there is no bottom rung on IQ to serve in Congress.

She[Barbara Lee] was the only African-American Girl Scout in El Paso, and she recalls having faced racial discrimination throughout her childhood.

Lee’s parents divorced in 1955. Five years later, she moved to California with her mother and two sisters. She attended San Fernando High School in the Pacoima neighborhood of Los Angeles, where she worked with the NAACP to become the school’s first African-American cheerleader, and she graduated in 1964. When she was 15, Lee had a back-alley abortion in Ciudad Juárez. She married Carl Lee, a member of the United States Air Force, and moved with him to England after high school; they had two children, and then divorced when Lee was 20. Lee describes the marriage as abusive, and she became homeless following the divorce.

She later moved to the Bay Area and attended Mills College, where she served as president of the college’s Black Student Union, and she graduated in 1973 with a bachelor of arts in psychology. She later attended the University of California, Berkeley, from where she graduated in 1975 with a master of social work. Throughout college, Lee was a single mother of two on public assistance and food stamps, and she often took her children to class because she was unable to afford child care.

I hate to engage in stereotyping, but I have no confidence in “Lateefa”.
