ALT BLACK WOMEN DID THEIR BIG ONE IN GEORGIA Keisha Lance Bottoms Governor

ALT After working tirelessly for years to flip Georgia, Black women did it.

ALT “For 250 years, Black women have helped build this democracy while being denied our rightful place in its leadership. This victory belongs to generations of Black women who registered our neighbors, organized our churches, mobilized our families, and refused to surrender our political power, even when the doors to power remained closed to us. And it carries a message that reaches far beyond Georgia: No billionaire can buy what organized people are determined to build.” Nadine Smith CEO & President, Color Of Change
