It's starting to become "fuzzy" history but the REASON, that Pres Biden was elected was Black Women. They saved him in SC, they turned out/volunteered/donating to him, they rallied even MORE, when he selected Sen Harris. We defeated tfg BECAUSE Black Women delivered. 1/4
Now we see, (thanks to @myronjclifton's eloquent words) that Black Women, volunteering to certify the election, were attacked/harassed/threatened. Not bc they were trying to get Biden elected. No. Just for volunteering to do their duty. 2/4
Full disclosure: I have overseen several elections & it is impossible to do, what was insinuated. EVERY poll worker, no matter what their party was, is there to help folks vote & have them be counted. 3/4
Myron is not being hyperbolic: if we don't stand up for Black Women, WE CANT WIN. Period. This is an attack on these women & democracy itself. We cannot let this stand nor forget how we have ANY victories. #RememberInNovember 4/4
