FILE - Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., left, speaks during a news conference, Oct. 19, 2021, next to Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., on Capitol Hill in Washington. The U.S. Senate’s only Black Republican is putting forth what he characterizes as a positive response to partisan rhetoric on race that he’s best-positioned to rebut. Tim Scott of South Carolina tells The Associated Press that he hopes a video series on issues he sees as pertinent to the Black community will help refocus a fraught national conversation on race. Scott has timed the release in conjunction with Martin Luther King Jr. Day. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin, File)
