"The number of black men and women that are killed by police in the United States is astonishing. Neither Republicans nor Democrats have been willing to overturn policies that impede justice for our community. In this forum we will explore strategies that can tackle these issues." — Robin Harris, GPUS Black Caucus Co-Chair

Friend—

We may not have glitzy, prime-time stages on the pay-for-play news networks. We may not have multi-millionaire newsreaders to serve as our “moderators.” But what we do have is a Green Party dedicated to actual democracy in our presidential primary and candidates dedicated to fighting for People and Planet over profit — and we are in the fight of our lives.

That’s why we’re excited to invite you to watch the September 20th presidential candidates forum hosted by the GPUS Black Caucus. Forums and debates like these are essential for Greens to make an informed choice in our 2020 primary and to inform folks not yet in the party about our candidates’ bold platforms. Will you give $20.20 or perhaps $25 or $50 so we have the resources to support these events and spread the word to ensure the entire country knows that Greens are out there campaigning for our shared values?

Our party’s Black Caucus is hard at work organizing a forum that will focus on long-neglected political concerns of Black communities such as redlining, livable wages, the housing crisis and police brutality. You can join us on Friday, September 20th at 6pm ET in Muncie, IN on the campus of Ball State University or over the web on Facebook Live. RSVP at that link so you get important details and the latest updates!

We don’t take corporate donations and we won’t sell ads for the corporate TV networks. That means no one will promote or fund our debates except us. Please spread the word to your friends, family and allies. Tell your favorite reporters and media outlets that voters deserve coverage of all of the candidates for 2020! And please give today — any amount helps — so we can continue supporting the efforts of our caucuses and state parties to introduce these candidates to communities across the country.

In Solidarity,
Robin Harris
GPUS Black Caucus Co-chair
