Donald Trump likes to claim that he’s done more for Black folks than any president since Abraham Lincoln. But as this piece outlines, that is another one of his shameless lies. On Tuesday, let’s make the right choice and elect Kamala Harris and Tim Walz! https://t.co/KY7Ffe8mxY
On behalf of everyone whose story could only be written in the greatest nation on Earth, I accept your nomination to be the President of the United States of America.
.@KamalaHarris is ready for this moment. By every measure, she will be one of the most qualified people ever to seek the presidency. And by every measure, she will be one of the most dignified.
The Caribbean may be small in size but our impact shakes the world!
Yesterday our Caribbean people stood tall as our athletes wrote their names on History’s Page.
I’m so proud of my girl, Kamala. Barack and I are so excited to endorse her as the Democratic nominee because of her positivity, sense of humor, and ability to bring light and hope to people all across the country. We’ve got your back, @KamalaHarris!
In these times of deadly #heatwaves and natural disasters like #HurricaneBeryl, remember: during #Trump's first term, over 125 environmental protections were weakened or eliminated. Your #vote shapes our future. It’s not just about winning or losing—it’s about survival and who lives and dies. Vote wisely and make a difference! ✊🏾 #ClimateAction #Vote2024 #ClimateCrisis #EnvironmentalJustice @AJEnglish #Beryl #Houston 🙏🏽
