The story

Shirley Chisholm, shortly after being elected as the first Black woman to the United States Congress for Brooklyn, immediately butts heads. Firstly, one of her colleagues essentially bullies her daily by marvelling to her that they all receive the same high salary. Then she protests that, as a new congressperson, she is automatically assigned to an agricultural committee although she represents an urban borrough.
