State Senator Marilyn Moore, seeking to unseat Mayor Joe Ganim for a second time, will host her first fundraiser on Friday at the Circolo Sportivo Club on Park Avenue. See donation page here.
Moore gave Ganim a scare in 2019 losing a tight Democratic primary. John Gomes, former Ganim administration official and Lamond Daniels, who worked in the Finch administration, are also in the race.
Ganim has raised more than $200K, Gomes eclipsing $100K and Daniels roughly $26,000 during his exploratory, now full candidate, committee phase.
The first quarter 2023 fundraising cycle is a key barometer for the money chase that fuels organization, messaging, staffing, consultants and turnout.

How much of a role do you think 🍆 plays in racism? Anger is like water. It follows the path of the least resistance. In America, that’s race. However, white is not a race or at least a nationality/culturally speaking. Is it? I don’t think so. So when you speak of “white Supremacy”, particularly with regards to Black (though not a race either) African slavery in America. Why is it not specific in whiteness, English/England? I have noticed in plain sight the Nazis/Hitler is associated with “White Supremacy” But didn’t history teach England fought against German?
To be fair Italy did fight with Hitler, will for half of the war. Still trying to wrap my head around that. German on the march, the Allies when the way, let’s get’em. The Allies on march the german went that way. Let’s get’em.

Surely the White Irish “servitudes” of the English shouldn’t be bunched up with English-decent of African Slavery such as the owner of America’s first president George Washington and his cherry tree? Should it?

Are we bunching up the time of America’s first president George Washington and the 44th American president, a man of color who has held the responsibility of President of the United States with dignity, respectful of the Constitution and law, and serving the public along with many women and men in Congress, and State Houses and our own highest justice in the CT Supreme Court), Or are you speaking of two separate Americas?
While we seem to be on opposite sides of many political debates we are both white. Though, I would bet you are whiter than I, being my heritage/lineage outside of being an American. So Public Enemy #1, “white supremacy” is that your witness or mine?
Speaking of people of color, do you find “Italians decent” and “Christopher Columbus” to be a person of color? Originally Italians were not considered white however somewhere along the American timeline that has changed. Have CRT writings of the historic participants deemed Italians white enough in today’s times? Perhaps it was Columbus who help them become white in America,
Ginney/Guinea Italians Pronounced “gi-nee.” Came from “Guinea Negro” and originally referred to any Black or any person of mixed ancestry. This dates back to the 1740’s. By the 1890s it was being applied to Italians–almost certainly because they tend to have darker skin than Anglo-Saxons/Germans. By 1911 the term began being applied to Hispanics, although the reference to Italians is the most common.
