At Legislative Black Caucus Reception, Governor Candidates Asked to Lay Out Their Policies to Bolster the Black Agenda


Black policymakers challenged gubernatorial candidates to elaborate on their strategies to create equity, inclusion and ownership through their “Black Agendas” at a reception Thursday evening.

“I think it’s important that we put things in context because when you start talking about a Black Agenda, a Black Agenda means something different to everyone in the room,” Del. Darryl Barnes, the chair of the Legislative Black Caucus, said Thursday evening.

All nine of the declared Democratic candidates for governor — Rushern L. Baker III, John Baron, Peter V.R. Franchot, Doug Gansler, Ashwani Jain, John B. King, Jr., Wes Moore, Tom Perez and Michael Rosenbaum — attended the Legislative Black Caucus’ candidates reception Thursday evening to inform voters of color about their policies surrounding the Black Agenda.

Two of the Republican candidates — Del. Daniel L. Cox (R-Frederick) and Robin Ficker — and Libertarian candidate David Lashar also attended.

1. This interests me so I went to the link and never found a clear explanation of

just what The Black Agenda is, except that it varies between reTHUG, Libertarian and
Democratic candidates. That's no surprise. I've long thought that what's
good/productive for any one ethninc group will be good/productive for all.

Stop the hate, stop the violence, truly bring liberty and justice to all peoples and you'll
get my vote.
