امریکی ریاست مسیسیپی میں تعمیرِ نو کے دور کے بعد پہلا سیاہ فام سینیٹر منتخب
Reuters reported on November 12 that Democrat Scott Colom won a Mississippi Senate seat, becoming the state’s first Black senator since Reconstruction. The result is historically significant for a state whose political history has been shaped by the legacy of slavery, segregation and civil-rights struggles. The election also forms part of a wider shift in the US political landscape following the midterm vote. The practical impact will depend on the Senate’s balance, committee assignments and the priorities the new senator pursues after taking office.
