In the latest blow to establishment Democrats, Boston City Councilor Ayanna Pressley defeated Rep. Michael Capuano for the nomination in Massachusetts’ 7th District.

Pressley will become the first black woman to represent Massachusetts in Congress, after serving as the first black woman to serve on the city council. Capuano was a 10-term incumbent, representing a district covering an area stretching southwest from Boston. Capuano conceded Tuesday evening.

The race was compared to the Democratic primary in New York’s Fourteenth District, which also featured a woman of color, endorsed by the Justice Democrats, running against an older, white, male incumbent. But there were clear differences. New Yorker Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was a first-time candidate while Pressley has served on the City Council since her election in 2009. Although she was endorsed by progressive groups, Pressley, who has worked for Sen. John Kerry and supported Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election, is not as far left as Ocasio-Cortez, a Democratic Socialists of America member who organized for Bernie Sanders. The two women met at a fund-raising event in New York in June, and Pressley referred to Ocasio-Cortez as her “sister in change.”

Another win for Progressives. :ehh:

That's dope to see...especially in Boston
'especially?'

Nikka did you see the turn out after the post Charlotsville rally in Boston? 40,000 people shut shyt down....

Boston is one of the most liberal cities on the planet by far. You can easily look that up. Massachusetts is the most liberal state in the United States. With 30% of people identifying themselves as liberals. Boston is right behind D.C. as the most liberal city in the country. At 78% identifying themselves as liberals.

Of course it has racist suburbs just like every other major city.

Stop believing the hype because a few small peen drunk white boys at football games. Especially the shyt talking that comes from nikkas on TheColi who live in states where the Confederate flag still flies high. State-sponsored racism. Nikkas in Red States pointing fingers instead of being active.

How long ago did they stop teaching Social Studies in school? :patrice:

For the city to be one of the most liberal in the world, you don't find it funny that it took until 2018 for them to elect their first black woman?

For the city to be one of the most liberal in the world, you don't find it funny that under 5% of black workers in Boston are officials/managers?

For the city to be one of the most liberal in the world, you don't find it funny that one of their most prominent universities has a lawsuit trying to erase affirmative action?

Liberal =/ Racist

Not once did I mention sports. I could if I really want to to further my point though.

Idk when they stopped teaching Social Studies, but I wish they kept it in so you would have learned something :ehh:

I don't get why liberalism is automatically associated with not racist when they are every bit as racist, but know how to cover it up better. Austin is another example of a liberal capital with blacks having a minimal presence.
