My Take
Lori Lightfoot interests me as a study in barrier-breaking under pressure. Rising from Massillon, Ohio to the University of Chicago Law School and then to City Hall, she became the first Black woman and first openly LGBTQ mayor of Chicago. Whatever one thinks of her tenure, and it was genuinely contentious, the symbolic weight of her arrival is undeniable. I tend to value people who walk through doors that were closed for everyone who looked like them before.
