Francia Márquez was elected Colombia's first Black woman vice-president on the ticket with Gustavo Petro. An environmental and community organizer, she brought Afro-Colombian territorial struggles into national executive politics. The election broke a representational barrier without demonstrating that the racial and gender hierarchies contested by those movements had ended.
