"Efforts to restore democracy to the United States, a troubled, oil-rich former British colony with a history of political violence, may have suffered a serious setback this week after yet another chaotic presidential debate, some Americanists say."

Based Patrick Gathara (the author). His tweets are something I miss over here. As well as the US, also great perspectives on the reclusive flavour-starved kingdom of Britain and sub-Scandanavian Europe!

It's too bad, but it's actually not that astonishing that Black journalists don't want to go a network that has such a bad reputation for racism.

You're missing the point. Black Twitter because a strong community despite their previous racist owner not cracking down on racists. Black Twitter's not what it used to be but still much better than any equivalent in the fediverse -- which also doesn't generally crack down on racists. And, Gathara has an existing audience there that's much bigger than what he'd find here.
