ഒരു അമേരിക്കൻ പരിസ്ഥിതി പ്രവർത്തകയും ആക്ടിവിസ്റ്റും മുൻ രാഷ്ട്രീയ സ്ഥാനാർത്ഥിയുമാണ് മാർക്വിറ്റ ബ്രാഡ്‌ഷോ (ജനനം: ജനുവരി 19, 1974). 2020 ലെ ടെന്നസിയിൽ നടന്ന അമേരിക്കൻ സെനറ്റ് തിരഞ്ഞെടുപ്പിൽ ഡെമോക്രാറ്റിക് നോമിനിയായിരുന്നു അവർ. പൊതുതെരഞ്ഞെടുപ്പിൽ റിപ്പബ്ലിക്കൻ ബിൽ ഹാഗെർട്ടിയോട് അവർ പരാജയപ്പെട്ടു.^[1]^[2]^[3]ടെന്നസിയിലെ സംസ്ഥാനവ്യാപകമായി നടക്കുന്ന ഒരു മൽസരത്തിൽ ഒരു പ്രധാന രാഷ്ട്രീയ പാർട്ടിയിൽ നാമനിർദേശം നേടിയ ആദ്യത്തെ ആഫ്രിക്കൻ അമേരിക്കൻ വനിതയായിരുന്നു അവർ.^[4]

ആദ്യകാല ജീവിതവും വിദ്യാഭ്യാസവും

ടെന്നസിയിലെ മെംഫിസിലാണ് ബ്രാഡ്‌ഷോ ജനിച്ച് വളർന്നത്. കുട്ടിക്കാലത്ത്, മെംഫിസ് ഡിഫൻസ് ഡിപ്പോയിൽ നിന്നുള്ള മലിനീകരണത്തെക്കുറിച്ച് അവബോധം വളർത്തുന്നതിൽ അവരുടെ കുടുംബം സജീവമായിരുന്നു. ആഫ്രിക്കൻ അമേരിക്കൻ അയൽ‌പ്രദേശമായ മെംഫിസിലെ മലിനമായ സൈനിക താവളം 1992 ൽ സൂപ്പർഫണ്ട് സൈറ്റായി മാറി. ^[5] സൈറ്റിനെക്കുറിച്ച് പ്രാദേശിക ആരോഗ്യ പ്രശ്‌നങ്ങൾ ഉണ്ടാക്കുന്നുവെന്ന് ജീവനക്കാർ വിശ്വസിച്ചതിനാൽ അവരുടെ മാതാപിതാക്കൾ "ബന്ധപ്പെട്ട പൗര സമിതി" സംഘടിപ്പിച്ചു.^[6]

അവരുടെ ആക്ടിവിസ്റ്റ് മാതാപിതാക്കൾക്ക് പുറമേ ബ്രാഡ്‌ഷോയെ വർഷങ്ങളോളം ടെന്നസി ജനപ്രതിനിധിസഭയിലെ ഡെമോക്രാറ്റിക് അംഗമായിരുന്ന അമ്മാവൻ ജോൺ ഡെബെറി സ്വാധീനിച്ചിരുന്നു. ^[7]

മെംഫിസ് സർവകലാശാലയിൽ നിന്ന് ജേണലിസത്തിലും കമ്മ്യൂണിക്കേഷൻ പഠനത്തിലും ബ്രാഡ്‌ഷാ ലിബറൽ സ്റ്റഡീസ് ബിരുദം നേടി.^[8]

കരിയർ

ബ്രാഡ്‌ഷോ സിയറ ക്ലബ്സ് ടെന്നസി ചാപ്റ്ററിന്റെ എൻവിയോൺമെന്റൽ ജസ്റ്റിസ് ചെയർ ആണ്. ^[9] ചട്ടനൂഗ ടൈംസ് ഫ്രീ പ്രസ് റിപ്പോർട്ട് ചെയ്യുന്നതനുസരിച്ച് “മിഡ്-സൗത്ത് പീസ് ആൻഡ് ജസ്റ്റിസ് സെന്റർ, എ‌എഫ്‌എൽ-സി‌ഐ‌ഒ, സിയറ ക്ലബ്, ടെന്നസീൻസ് ഫോർ ഫെയർ ടാക്സേഷൻ എന്നിവ ഉൾപ്പെടെയുള്ള കമ്മ്യൂണിറ്റി അഡ്വക്കസി ഗ്രൂപ്പുകൾ, പരിസ്ഥിതി സംഘടനകൾ, യൂണിയനുകൾ എന്നിവയുമായി അവർ പ്രവർത്തിച്ചിട്ടുണ്ട്.^[10]
