African Americans and the Vote

Did you know that African Americans & the Vote was the theme for Black History Month in 2020, as established by the Association for the Study of African American Life and History. It was only 152 years ago that African American men received the right to the ballot, and even then it was not an easy pursuit.

African Americans play a crucial role in the vote on both the local and national level. The importance of casting your vote, participating in political dialogues, and amplifying black voices becomes increasingly every year!
