11:00Now PlayingWelcome to “Prime” hosted by Charles Blow.
Coming up, there is a rise of Black power in the state of politics. New York Governor Kathy Hochul set to name State Senator Brian Benjamin to fill as lieutenant governor. He will be the second Black man to ever hold the lieutenant governor's job in New York after David Paterson held the role in 2007.
In Georgia, former NFL star and Trump ally Herschel Walker, will run in the Georgia Senate race. He has lived in Texas for decades and has never run for office before despite growing up in Georgia.
Michael Harriot, senior writer at The Root, and Dr. Niambi Carter, associate professor of political science at Howard University, joins Blow on “Prime” to discuss the state of Black power.
All this and more on “Prime.”
