People tend to remember the first time they heard @staceyabrams speak, and it’s easy to see why. On a Friday afternoon in May, the Democratic nominee for governor of #Georgia is at a union hall in Augusta, telling a story about her father, a college-educated black man who was relegated by his race to working at a shipyard in southern Mississippi in the 1970s. The family had one car, so Robert Abrams would sometimes hitchhike home in the middle of the night. When he didn’t come home one time, the rest of the family set out to pick him up and found him half-frozen by the side of the road, having given his coat to a homeless man. They asked why he would do such a thing. And Robert said, “Because I knew you were coming for me.” You can hear scattered sniffles in the union hall as his daughter pauses. Then she roars: “I am coming for you, Georgia! Help me get there!” This kind of moment is one reason why Abrams, 44, has a chance to become America’s first black female governor. “I know talent when I see it,” says @valeriebjarrett, a former top adviser to @barackobama, who tells TIME she sees the same kind of “unusual” skills in Abrams. Whether Abrams can win is another matter. Georgia has grown purpler as its demographics shift, and November could bring a national Democratic wave driven by women and people of color. Abrams will benefit from a well-funded campaign and a divisive opponent, Georgia secretary of state Brian Kemp. But in a state that hasn’t elected a Democratic governor in two decades, Abrams remains an #underdog. If she can pull it off, the implications would be profound, not just for Georgia but for the whole region and potentially the nation. Read more on TIME.com.
