Wednesday morning, I woke up to the news that Georgia Democrats flipped the Senate. I reflected on how fortunate I am to have witnessed the elections of the first African-American president, the first African-American vice president, and now, the election of the first African-American senator from Georgia.
As an Atlanta-born, Black American, this not only felt like a win for the country but a win for myself and my community. I was on a high and so was the rest of my Twitter feed.
