Gen Z will tell you what’s up with them. What you’ll learn if you’re listening is they are not disengaged. Some are disaffected, yes. They’re turned off by what’s going on in America. They don’t trust politicians, because Gen Z brings concerns to them and other grownups in the room and the issues falls flat.

Disaffected Gen Z is not disengaged, though. They roll up their sleeves and get in communities and do the work.

You have to believe Gen Z would vote in larger numbers and otherwise be more civically invested if they believed their desires mattered to politicians as much as the votes for which candidates clamor.

They’ve got next. Eva Clayton, North Carolina’s first Black congresswoman, put her stamp on it. The young people here are the most recent cohort of The Honorable Eva M. Clayton Fellowship. Now it’s on them to do their part to have impact. Clayton would tell them things won’t always go as planned. Like when she ran for office and lost. She still had impact, though, because her campaign got people off their couches and into voting booths. Some were inspired to run for office.

We’re over here having the hardest time trying to figure out why legislation like Senate Bill 558 was necessary. It bans what some legislators describe as divisive concepts in public higher education. Seems to us like the stuff they’re worried about actually unites.

Over the weekend, we learned of the tragic passing of a Black man near Nash Square in downtown Raleigh. While officials and news outlets have been quick to dismiss the incident as a su***de by hanging, the national rise in suspicious deaths of Black people requires a pause. The initial response and continued reporting read as indifferent and insensitive to Black life.

For many of us, it’s hard to believe that anyone would choose this for themselves. While su***de rates for Black people have been on the rise, the quick rush to dismiss this case reflects a broader issue with respecting Black life and experience. We call on local law enforcement and city leaders to share all information related to this tragedy. We’re also asking local police departments and news outlets to re-evaluate their policies on public responses to sensitive matters.

On behalf of North Carolina Black Alliance and Advance Carolina, we extend our heartfelt condolences to those who lost a loved one this week and/or have otherwise been impacted by this tragedy. In moments like this, we must remember the real difference between intent and impact. Empathy and patience can go a long way.

This peek inside the summer conference of the North Carolina Black Elected Municipal Officials (NCBEMO) provides a snapshot of our wins. The strategy to get there was clear and still works:

🗣️ Turn it out: Tell those who don’t vote why they must.

🗳️ Turn out: Make sure they actually vote.

👀 Turn up: When your city council and board of county commissioners meet, drop by and see to it that they’re doing what they promised when they ran for office.

NCBEMO is a North Carolina Black Alliance affiliate. ➡️Learn more at ncbemo.org.
