Leaders in Boston’s Black and Latinx communities plan to gather at Morning Star Baptist Church in Mattapan after the Sept. 14 mayoral preliminary ended without any Black candidates making it to the general election set for Nov. 2.

The meeting, set for Saturday at 10 a.m., is limited to several dozen people due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The meeting will include clergy, elected officials of color who have not endorsed, as well as officials from the NAACP, Urban League, Black Economic Council of Massachusetts and neighborhood groups. South End state Rep. Jon Santiago, who ran for mayor before dropping out in July, is also said to be involved.
