An important look – through the various comment threads under @chanda.blacksky.app's post about @blackgirlinmaine.bsky.social's substack piece – on the Maine primary race for the US Senate Dem nomination, focusing on two candidates & who has reached out to Maine's BIPOC population.

I like this piece from @blackgirlinmaine.bsky.social. She’s right that our conditions shape the candidates we get.
“Are we trying to stop things before they get worse or not?”
I think Mainers understand the hand they were dealt by local and national political conditions. Many other folks don’t.
One thing that the current primary season seems to be revealing is that far too many of us are not recognizing that the United States of today is not remotely the country of 18 months ago.
