Black boys in America do not always get a chance to choose our heros. Rev. Jackson was one of mine, along with many other black boys like me. So, I wrote about it. I'd like you to read it. So, Im sharing. ms.now/opinion/jesse-jackson…

Opinion | Jesse Jackson was an unapologetically Black American hero

Charles F. Coleman Jr.: He helped insert Black men into the national discourse and did so with an uncompromising demand that would make us permanently relevant.

What does inclusion look like when candidates ask for your vote? For @CFColemanJr, it starts with naming Black men in the policies meant to serve them and listening to their experiences. We brought this conversation from last week’s GOTV rally to Sunday Brunch because Higher Heights is the political home for Black women, with room for our allies, including Black men, to share their perspectives and be heard. Watch the full conversation on our YouTube channel with @CollectivePAC Founder and President @QJames, Higher Heights Director of Programs Jay Brandon, and civil rights attorney and @MSNOWNews legal analyst Charles Coleman Jr. #BlackWomenLead

@CFColemanJr Loved your comment “you can’t buy class”; a philosophy I was raised on in the 40’s and 59’s.

In the Fight for Voting Rights, Where Are White Democrats?

The lack of care paid to another hyper-partisan SCOTUS ruling sets up a dangerous paradigm that threatens to seed resentment among Black voters.

The captured & corrupt SCOTUS rules… “Politicians can choose their voters, rather than voters choose their politicians.” ~ @CFColemanJr

Justice Kagan: "I dissent. The Voting Rights Act is—or, now more accurately, was—'one of the most consequential, efficacious, and amply justified exercises of federal legislative power in our Nation's history.' It was born of the literal blood of Union soldiers and civil rights marchers. It ushered in awe-inspiring change, bringing this Nation closer to fulfilling the ideals of democracy and racial equality. And it has been repeatedly, and overwhelmingly, reauthorized by the people's representatives in Congress. Only they have the right to say it is no longer needed—not the Members of this Court. I dissent, then, from this latest chapter in the majority's now-completed demolition of the Voting Rights Act."

Democrats have to learn to walk and chew gum at the same time. Social media is flooded with videos of lines in airports. They need to AGGRESSIVELY message around why this is (funding for ICE) so the blame and pressure stays on the GOP. If they dont, public sentiment WILL shift.

The Epstein debacle continues to display America's disregard for women and children in favor of the elite and powerful. It becomes increasingly obvious and we can't remain silent on the women voters who looked past what we knew in order to support this administration.
