The story of being Black in America is filled with never-ending chapters of challenge.

Driving while Black.

Banking while Black.

Parenting while Black.

But what about voting while Black?

They always tell you this election will be different, and it rarely is.

So many promises made.

Promises of economic justice and social equity that never quite make it to your pocket or your porch.

But this election, there really is only one choice.

This time, she is the choice.

Now I know, you’re thinking,

“I’ve never voted for a woman, and I’m not gonna start now.”

Ask yourself, “Why not?”

And maybe you’ll find it’s not about her.

It’s about you, what you want for your family, for your future.

Because if you vote for what you want, the choice becomes clear.

It’s Kamala.

Listen to your gut.

Your heart is telling you that Kamala Harris is the right person for the job.

It’s time for courage, for boldness.

It’s time to come together for change.

It’s time to be a man.

Vote for a woman.
