Democrat Al Green addressed his protest at Trump’s State of the Union speech, during which the congressman held up a handwritten sign that read: ‘Black people aren’t apes!’ The sign referenced a racist depiction of Barack and Michelle Obama, which the president recently shared on social media. After being ejected from the speech, Green told journalists he wanted to take a stand against the president doing “these dastardly things with impunity”.
