When she was elected in 2023, Chow became the first racialized person to serve as mayor

Does racialized just mean non-white?

    Yeah. It's white speak for "those coloured folks" when they want to sound sophisticated and not-racist...

    Another one they use is "people of colour". But never refer to their own as "people without colour".
