***********************

Dear People For Supporter,

The Far Right has been waging a multi-front assault on Black voters,
including voter suppression legislation to keep them from the polls,
misinformation to depress their turnout, and racist gerrymanders to dilute
their power.

So People For is launching our Defend the Black Vote campaign in 15 states
to get at least a million Black men ages 18 to 60 to the polls. Typically,
Black men vote at much lower rates than black women – so we’re focusing on
infrequent but registered voters and building on the success of our 2020
program, in which nearly 70 percent of the Black men we engaged with
ultimately cast a ballot.

This is one of the largest GOTV programs directly focusing on Black men
this election year – and we believe it will go a very long way to helping
ensure Black communities will be represented by people who share their
communities’ values and priorities.

Please watch our launch video below – and then help spread the word about
the program to all your friends and family.

We all know
that this is the most important election of our lives – in so many ways,
democracy itself is on the ballot this year. So we hope you’re making
plans to step up your involvement in the weeks ahead; here are four more
good ways to do that:

* Please visit and use our [ [link removed] ]Defend the Black Vote online toolkit for
social media content, graphics, and important information to share
widely.

* Check in with your own friends and family – by text, phone call, email
or social media – to make sure they commit to voting, and have a plan
to do so.

* Sign up with us to [ [link removed] ]send Get Out the Vote postcards to voters in key
states

* Sign up to [ [link removed] ]protect democracy on Election Day by being a poll
worker.

Thank you so much for everything you do, and we look forward to working
with you to help turnout massive numbers of voters – especially Black
voters – in this November’s midterm elections.

Sincerely,

Svante Myrick, Executive Director
