Crockett and Mamdani - The Path Forward [View all]
Post in the Black American GroupCan someone explain to me how the same people who can't see a path forward for Rep Crockett - with her background, education, professional experience a tested as a member of the House of Representatives, were all in for Mamdani and are all in for Platner in Maine?
Mamdani is a Muslim and that demo makes about 10% in NYC.
In Texas, Black Americans make up about 13% of the population. Black women are 51% of that population.
Maine is . . . well - Maine.
I just need someone to explain why Crockett is perceived as 'lower' than Platner and Mamdani? Why? What's the difference?
