They hope that n help young, LGBTQ people feel safer, more affirmed and n even enurage them to one day participate ernment.</p><p>And Lightfoot’s victory isn’t jt a historil moment for Chigo: She’s the only black, lbian mayor the Uned Stat, and Chigo is the largt cy wh an openly gay mayor U.S. history.</p><p>“As a black, queer woman myself, we don’t see reprentatn like this, and I thk that’s a huge step the right directn and amazg thg for the cy of Chigo,” said Imani Rupert, executive director of Affy, a social jtice group that advot for black, queer Chigoans. “We know that when we see folks posns of powers that share our inti, that impacts folks.”</p><p>Equaly Illois CEO Brian Johnson also said Lightfoot’s victory would serve as a powerful example of reprentatn for queer people. Equaly Illois is an LGBTQ advocy group that endorsed Lightfoot.</p><p>“To be able to see ourselv reflected the mayor of the third-largt cy Ameri, that’d be spirg,” Johnson said. “What do mean for the young, lbian, Ain Amerin teenager? What is gonna mean for the young trans woman on the North Si? What is gonna mean for the gay Lato young man on the Wt Si … ?</p><p>“It’s gog to send a msage of spiratn to assume there are no barriers to havg an impact the cy.”</p><figure class="wp-block-image"><img siz="(max-width: 1932px) 100vw, 1932px" srcSet=" 1932w, 300w, 768w, 1024w, 1536w, 1080w, 72w, 564w, 615w, 114w, 254w, 507w, 1013w, 600w, 1200w, 1366w" class="wp-image-114299" alt="" src=" height="1288" width="1932" loadg="lazy" dg="async"/><span class="image-cred"><strong>Cred: </strong> Lori Lightfoot/Facebook</span><figptn>Lori Lightfoot walks at the Chigo Pri Para.</figptn></figure><p>The reprentatn is important to Johnson on a personal level, too, he said: As a 14-year-old boy growg up Virgia, he never expected to see an openly gay mayor leadg one of the largt U.S. ci.</p><p>“I may be 41 years old, but part of me is still that 14-year-old gay kid … thkg that me g out was gonna be this ath knell to my reer, that I was gonna be ashamed and stigmatized my whole life,” he said. Lightfoot’s w “jt mak me so proud of our cy and proud of my muny.”</p><p>Annise Parker, who mpaigned Chigo for Lightfoot and served as Hoton’s first openly gay mayor, said Lightfoot won’t jt fluence Chigo but will serve as a role mol and n enurage more queer people to n for office across the Uned Stat.</p><p>“She’ll be a galvanizg force for the LGBTQ muny — not jt Chigo,” Parker said. “Chigo has an outsize impact on natnal polics.
