A new year brought the swearing-in of newly elected officials in Harris County, Texas, and among them were 17 black female judges.
The group of women, who were part of a local democratic campaign called "Black Girl Magic Texas," first made history – and headlines – when they won their respective midterm elections in November. Together, they make up what is believed to be the largest group of black female judges to be elected at the same time in Harris County history.
Hidalgo has spoken at length about the importance of diversity in Harris County's government. "We made history in Harris County on November 6 by electing a talented group of individuals who reflect the people and communities we serve," she said in a press release for Tuesday's ceremony. "That would not have been possible without the support of the residents of Harris County." Harris County, which includes Houston, is the largest county in the state. According to the most recent census data, 43% of people in Harris County are Hispanic, and nearly 20% of the county's residents identify as African-American.

Why is an over representation of blacks a thing to celebrate, and a roughly equal to their % of population of whites a bad thing?
Perhaps someone can school me in race theory.
Blacks like taking over the things whites build. I mean why wouldn't they?
White ppl acting like they wouldn’t take a free ride and use a race card if they could.
