Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) on Thursday revealed some of the death threats she has received because she has been fighting for racial justice.

The threats on Bush's life escalated after the lawmaker said that the July 4th holiday celebrates "freedom for white people."

Bush shared some of the threats on Twitter.

"Tone it down, bitch," one person said. "You're going to get yourself murdered if you keep running off that big old gorilla mouth."

"Instead of police reform, how about N****r reform," the message added. "As they say in the country, 'The only good n****r is a dead n****r."

Another racist threat said that Bush would "burn slow and hang high."
