A new message from your friends at People For the American Way.
***********************
Efforts to suppress the Black vote have taken many forms throughout the
years but one thing is clear: it has got to stop. From closing down
polling stations in predominately Black areas to robocalls targeted
towards Black Americans spewing misinformation about voting, the Black
vote has always been a target to swing elections in favor of many
political candidates
That’s why our nonpartisan affiliate People For the American Way
Foundation is determined to ensure a fairer and more inclusive democracy
by launching its newest initiative: Defend the Black Vote.
We’re asking you to join a host of volunteers from around the country to
Defend the Black Vote and help achieve record Black voter turnout, through
information and strategic mobilization, in states where voting rights are
imperiled.

with PFAWF’s easy-to-use text messaging platform and Defend the Black
Vote!>>
This tragic pandemic has resulted in many hardships in all aspects of our
lives. COVID-19 has disrupted traditional voter canvassing making remote
techniques like texting more important than ever! PFAW Foundation's Defend
the Black Vote campaign will utilize peer-to-peer texting to reach out to
Black Americans helping them register to vote, determine their nearest
polling station, providing information on early voting, and clearing up
misinformation surrounding mail-in voting.
The Black vote in America has experienced sustained attacks for decades
and we need to rise to the occasion to protect this important right!
Within Defend the Black Vote, our team is dedicated to provide resources,
deliver information to the Black community on voting, and counter the
efforts used to disenfranchise Black voters. All we need is your help!
[ [link removed] ]Help Defend the Black Vote by volunteering just a couple hours of your
time>>
The election this year will be one of the most important elections of our
lifetime. Let’s all make sure we are protecting this country, protecting
our democracy and protecting each other!
In solidarity,
Amol, PFAW
