FILE-In this Wednesday, Nov. 20, 2019 file photo, Tom Perez, left, chair of the Democratic National Committee, and Nikema Williams, chair of the Georgia Democratic Party, speak with reporters, in Atlanta. Georgia Democrats have selected state Sen. Nikema Williams, chair of the state party, to replace Rep. John Lewis on the ballot in November.
The executive committee of the Democratic Party of Georgia voted overwhelmingly on Monday for Williams to take Lewis’ spot on the ballot for the Atlanta-area 5th Congressional District after the longtime congressman and civil rights leader’s death last week. Williams beat out state Rep. Park Cannon, Georgia NAACP President James Woodall, Atlanta city councilman Andre Dickens and Robert Franklin, former president of Morehouse College in Atlanta.
Have they taken off the handcuffs yet?
Excuse me that is the Governors decision not yours.
Nikema Williams calls for restore DEMOCRACY to the American PEOPLE by replacing functions of mayor-gouvernor-senator.. by assemblies composed in parity by U.S CITIZENS renewed BY LOT for 1 month giving right to compensatory allowances ($140/day), training to take up their office
Now how did I guess a black woman would replace a black man. Not who was the best, but we need a black woman, what the heck, we have the mayors of Atlanta, and Chicago who are black (oops) forgot, now Black is supposed to be capitalized. Absolutely, ridiculous. Quality is gone
So you will not capitalize White when referring to people, but will capitalize Black? You’re intentionally causing more racial resentment, you know that?
ap not AP
Could you be less racist? You are the clear example of racism, Antiwhite (antiwhiteracism),and believe it or not,the proof that whitegenocide is real. First stages of genocide are division & dehumanization/depravity of rights...Equality,media bias,etc
Why not staceyabrams ?
