BAKARI SELLERS

[Politician and Attorney]
Bakari Sellers is a former Democratic member of the South Carolina House of Representatives, representing District 90. He was first elected to the chamber in 2006, but did not seek re-election to his house seat in 2014. Sellers is the son of civil rights leader Cleveland Sellers, the current president of Voorhees College in Denmark, S.C. He first attended the annual AIPAC conference while serving as student body president at Morehouse College. He has since become a prominent African-American advocate for Israel. In 2016, he authored a letter signed by 60 fellow African-American politicians urging the Democratic Platform Committee to keep the same language regarding Israel that appeared in previous Democratic platforms, for which he received criticism from pro-Palestinian activists.
