Mayor of Richmond in Virginia

Tracey Mclean is an author and talk show host who has written a series of books, produced and filmed television shows and managed artists. A small-business owner and self-published author, the central component of her campaign’s platform includes giving Black families in the city $500 each month, according to the Richmond Times-Dispatch. “Reparations is an answer to a lot of the things that are going on — from the protests, crime, evictions and our low graduation rates,” she said. “It will offer services, income and a step up to make life at least somewhat fair.” McLean attended John Tyler Community College.
