As alumni of Historically Black Colleges & Universities (HBCU) we stand on the shoulders of fellow HBCU graduates such as John Lewis, Thurgood Marshall, Oprah Winfrey, Medgar Evers, Toni Morrison and Jessie Jackson to name a few. In many ways, these prominent HBCU graduates took charge in educating and rallying the Black community to be politically active. To continue on that positive path, the HBCU Alumni Alliance asks you to show up and show out in your future local, state, and national elections.
In partnership with the League of Women Voters (LWV), the HBCU Alumni Alliance will be hosting a Virtual Cookout on voting awareness to rally the people to get out and vote! There will be live music by DJs from Atlanta, Chicago, and Washington, DC getting you in the mood to "FIRE UP THE VOTE!" We hope you tune in while you and your family are enjoying the 4th of July festivities.
Join us on FB Live (https://www.facebook.com/atlhbcualumni) on Saturday, July 4th at 3PM EST/2PM CST.
Don’t forget to wear your best ‘nelia, invite your family, friends and allies, post your celebration pictures and make your pledge to vote!
