But what do they represent? I don’t wanna fall into the identity politics trap my friend. #Alabama #WarEagle #RollTide #Midterm2018
History has been made!
First time in the entire history of Birmingham, Alabama that the city has a Black Mayor (@randallwoodfin), a Black Sheriff (@Pettway4Sheriff ), and a Black District Attorney (@VoteDannyCarr).

I hear you. All 3 are good men. Randall is a good friend of mine.

That’s good enough for me.

@randallwoodfin is a wonderful mayor and leader here in Birmingham. He has already made so much progress here, and he’s just now getting started. He’s the best thing that has happened to our city in a long, long time. - 1 more reply

None of this will mean a got damn thing if these “black” elected officials do nothing to SIGNIFICANTLY challenge/change/destroy every part of these governmental systems designed and setup to disenfranchise the black family!

These local elections won't make national headlines, but in the long run they can have the greatest future impact.
