Don’t Get Sick

This is the worst time for Blacks to get sick. Blacks are dying at an alarming rate by COVID-19 Virus as being reported.

Instead, our president held eight rallies and played golf six times. Voters will get to cast the ultimate judgment. Need another reason to vote or why voting is important!
