We’ve had African American governors, correct?
My Latest.
We're in a historic moment. The United States doesn't have a single Black governor. Soon, we could have 3.
Here I break down why I think @AndrewGillum & @StaceyAbrams & @BenJealous have cracked the code to Democratic Party success.https://theintercept.com/2018/08/29/andrew-gillum-stacey-abrams-ben-jealous-black-governors/ …

Very few. None currently.

I remember Doug Wilder in VA but that was many years ago

That was 1990. It was one of those watershed moments. Makes it all the more embarrassing for Maryland that Virginia had more Republicans at the time, but was more progressive than Maryland IS. In the early NINETIES.

We all need to collectively donate to their campaigns too! Imagine what all of us giving $10-20 or what we can would do! We don’t need the NRA to hand us cash! Grass roots gets it done y’all.

Imagine the day we vote for people based on their merits and accomplishments than if they are black or white.
-
Yes, I look forward to that day also. I look more forward to the day when we regularly stop choosing our leaders from a very small subset of people.

Thanks for all your hard work and dedication.
I believe in all 3 candidates and hoping people will vote them into office in 68 days. #GoodTroubleThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Is the color of a governor the most important aspect? What was it MLK said? Something about judging people by the content of their character not the color of their skin?

1/ Please. Anyone who follows Shaun King knows he is an ardent spokesperson for: ending police brutality; rights for Muslims, immigrants, LGBTQ, et al; gun control; and basic equality of opportunity for ALL.
