A message from Dr. Rik Stevenson - African American Studies - University of Florida
By 1875, there were 21 black men in the Senate.
Now we have 7.
And so, your vote counts.
I'm here to encourage you to understand that the Declaration, the white man's Declaration of Independence is a precursor to Project 2025. Project 2025 is designed to, one, take away your vote.
Secondly, it's designed to take away your educational system because an educated person, as Frederick Douglass says, is unfit to be a slave. That's why Malcolm said you can never trust the oppressor to train your children. That's why it becomes the responsibility of the churches to have African American studies classes as well as Bible classes.
Dr. Edward Bland✨
Local elections determine how your city is run. Local elections determine who's going to be on the council seats for the city as well as for the county, and we really need to vote in every election. State elections are vitally important.
We've got a sheriff election coming up, and of course, many of us out here are not Republicans, but you can vote in that election. That's going to determine who Is going to serve our community as sheriff. So, it is vitally important that we make sure that our children and our families go to the polls and vote.
