Karen Bass fights to keep LA mayorship amid challenges
Karen Bass's opponent in the 2026 LA mayoral race is Nithya Raman.
At the end of 2022, the four largest US cities all had Black mayors.
Black people comprise less than 9% of LA's total population.
“So those same people that had BLM flags in their yard and DEI and ‘Oh my God, I just discovered institutional racism and mass incarceration. How did that happen?’ are now like, ‘I’m done with it.’”
