Congrats to @wutrain and @AnnissaForBos, and to all the candidates who put their names forward in yesterday's election. We all have a role in fixing our schools, lifting up our most vulnerable neighbors, and building a stronger #Boston. Let's get to work. bostonglobe.com/2021/09/15/m…

No matter which candidate wins, a city known for being parochial and slow to change will mark two firsts this November — electing a mayor who is both a woman and a person of color.
