Hey,
We'll try to keep this short. Did you see Quentin's email yesterday? There wasn't a single Black candidate on the December debate stage last night.
As one of the most diverse nations in the world, we deserve to see our communities represented in one of the most important races of our lifetime. But as Cory pointed out during his interview with MSNBC, there are more billionaires than Black people running for president.

Our country can do better.

Subject: We can and should do better than this.
The last Democratic debate of the year is TONIGHT, and as many of you know, there won't be a single Black candidate on the stage. Although all of the candidates participating in the debate are more than qualified to beat Donald Trump, that's not the face of America -- and we as a party can and should do better.
In fact, Senator Cory Booker pointed out in an interview with MSNBC there are more billionaires than Black people running for president.
Listen, as one of the most diverse nations in the world, we deserve to see our communities represented in one of the most important races of our lifetime. That's why The Collective is working around the clock to elect the next Black wave. Pitch in today to help us support Black leaders →

While some multi-billionaires are buying their way onto the stage, we're working on fundraising, supporting, and electing the Black leaders who will be a voice for our communities and strengthen our democracy.
The lack of Black representation on the debate stage is disappointing. But there are countless races happening right now that will shape the future of our country -- not just the presidential race.
We're not done fighting. Please chip in whatever you can today to help us elect the next Black wave.

Together, we can strengthen our democracy.
