There are employment opportunities at the elections office, so you can get paid to become civically involved….two birds, one stone. 😁

Also…see attached election information.

Greetings,

The NAACP launched a new campaign urging Black college football/basketball athletes, fans and allies to “withhold athletic and financial support” from public universities in states that “have moved to limit, weaken or erase Black voting representation”: (after Supreme Court’s Louisiana v. Callais decision April 29, 2026)

📍Florida
📍Tennessee
📍Louisiana
📍Alabama
📍Mississippi
📍South Carolina
📍Texas
📍Georgia

campaign asks Black athletes, fans, donors, consumers to boycott SEC/states & SUPPORT HBCUs instead: "When considering where to commit your talent or your financial support, keep HBCUs at the top of your list".

"Profiting off of Black athletes while suppressing their vote is out of bounds."

🚫 No Representation.
🚫 No Recruitment.
🚫 No Revenue.

CAMPAIGN ACTIONS: 🏈🗣️🏀

🏢 Black athletes and recruits are asked to withhold commitments from targeted programs, to ask coaches and athletic directors where their universities stand on voting rights, and to visit and seriously consider HBCUs.

🗳️ Current college athletes are asked to use their platforms to elevate the issue, to ask institutional leadership for public statements opposing racial vote dilution, and to consider all available options under the transfer portal.

🏟️ Fans, alumni, donors, and consumers are asked to stop purchasing tickets, merchandise, and licensed apparel from targeted programs and to redirect that spending to HBCUs — their athletics programs, scholarship funds, NIL collectives, bands, and alumni foundations.

We will attend Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity’s elected officials panel discussion this evening. A few elected officials swing by to speak to the youth. It’s open to the public, so anyone is welcome to attend with a teenager (13-18yrs). Teenagers may be dropped off at 7pm and picked up at 9pm as well. Based on the current political climate, I’m sure we can all learn something. Attire is business casual.

Feel free to help serve the unhoused with us this afternoon. Call if interested (210) 363-3759
