As party leaders age, progressive Black Democrats take stage

Yearning for change, a group of progressive Black Democratic congressional hopefuls is rushing toward the national stage, igniting rank-and-file enthusiasm in a party dominated by aging white leaders. Charles Booker, 35, a first-term Kentucky state legislator who grew up poor, is vying for a Senate nomination against a rival who's outraised him 40 to 1 with the backing of national Democratic leaders. There's also Jamaal Bowman, 44, an educator and political neophyte seeking a New York congressional seat by trying to topple the chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee who's endorsed by Hillary Clinton and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
