3 simple facts (We need more Black women in office)

  John, Emerge women win. Women of the New American Majority win. Black women win. That’s not an opinion. It’s a fact that our alums have proven over and over again. But there’s still a problem.  Right now, there are ZERO Black women in the Senate. ZERO Black women have be…
