Indivisibles,

Since President Biden made the extraordinary decision to pass the baton to Vice President Harris to be the Democratic nominee for president, the energy and enthusiasm has been palpable -- and it’s only growing stronger. 

Within hours after Biden’s announcement, a record-breaking 44,000 Black women joined a Win With Black Women call to begin planning their work to support Harris. They showed up with a goal of raising $1 million in 100 days, and broke their goal in three hours -- raising $1.6 million for the Harris campaign. Soon after, a call was organized for Black men, with more than 45,000 joining to raise $1.3 million for Harris’ campaign. 

At a time when DEI, woke politics, and affirmative action are being used in racist attacks by MAGA Republicans, Black Americans once again proved that they will show up and show out as a backbone of the Democratic Party. 

Now it’s time to make sure every community is doing its part in electing Kamala Harris to be our first woman president, our first Black woman president, and our first South Asian woman president. We are proud to partner with Shannon Watts, founder of Moms Demand Action, and allies across the country to host a national call to coordinate our collective efforts to ensure Harris’ victory and Trump’s resounding defeat this November.

It is imperative that we speak openly about why we are talking to white women specifically in this moment. In 2016, a plurality of white female voters turned out in support of Donald Trump and were key to his winning the election and defeating Hillary Clinton. Despite everything we knew about Trump’s vile history with women, his disgusting comments throughout the campaign, and his alignment with the most hateful elements of the Republican party, many white women cast a vote for him. 

Eight years later, we are all still living through the devastating impact of that election.

We know that the Indivisible network is largely, though not exclusively, made up of white women. To our white female Indivisibles: We know how seriously you take our responsibility to make sure that what happened in 2016 never happens again. We are a crucial part of the coalition needed to elect Vice President Harris. We have the unique ability right now to speak honestly to others within our own community. If we are dedicated to electing Harris and defeating Trump, we must get organized now to take on this critical work. 

This is our time to rise to the challenge of this moment. The MAGA GOP will use every tool and every dollar at their disposal to discredit, diminish, slander, and vilify Vice President Harris. We’re already seeing proof that they have no hesitation to resort to sexist and racist language, and with Donald Trump as their leader, we know this is only the tip of the iceberg. 

But we can fight back. It is essential that all of us, especially white Indivisibles, are ready to call out these attacks and to call in our friends, family, neighbors, and community members when we hear and see them in our daily lives. 

For our white Indivisibles: This is what true allyship looks like in practice, and we want the network prepared and committed to take this on. This is our time to do more than just cast our vote on Election Day -- we need to use our power to educate and mobilize as many voters as we can to build an overwhelming wave of support. It’s not just enough that Harris wins the presidency. We need to power a massive rebuke of the racist, sexist, xenophobic, and anti-democratic foundations of the cult of MAGA. 

To our non-white Indivisibles: This is not a call to exclude you, but instead creating a space to call in white allies and assure they get to speaking out, organizing, and educating themselves and their friends in communities and spaces only they have access to through years of institutional inequality. White women have an obligation to share this responsibility.

Together, we will not only beat Trump again and stop Project 2025’s insidious agenda. We will make history and pave the way to pass reproductive freedom, voting rights, democracy reform and much more. Register now, and forward this email to your friends to invite them to join us. 

In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
