VOTING WHILE BLACK

About VOTING WHILE BLACK

The VOTING WHILE BLACK podcast goes beyond the rhetoric to reveal how the Democratic candidates for president really think about race. There is no doubt that the promise of fighting racism—and creating a truly equitable, just and safe society for everyone—will play a powerful role in motivating voters in the 2020 election. We are at a critical turning point, and cannot confuse rhetoric with action. Produced by the leading Black voter mobilization program, Color Of Change PAC, and hosted by Color Of Change PAC's Rashad Robinson, VOTING WHILE BLACK offers an honest take on race and politics, Black pain and Black power, corporate accountability and how we make change in this country instead of just talking about it.

Produced in partnership with Neon Hum Media.
