Marie Claire has one of the most comprehensive listings of Black women and men running for office in 2020. It is organized by state with quick access links to learn more about each candidates. I will highlight several Black women running in this thread. 2/ https://www.marieclaire.com/politics/a32780557/black-candidates-2020-election/
I want to shout out a few Black political orgs helping get Black candidates elected. @HigherHeights supports Black women & @CollectivePAC supports Black men and women running for office. Both organizations have winning track records building a pipeline of Black electeds. 3/
In order to support the pipeline of Black electeds, we can't forget the most important step: VOTING! @votedotorg is a comprehensive one stop with all the voting tools you need. Bonus points for it being an organization lead by Black women. 4/ https://www.vote.org/
