Blacks must get out and vote!

The time for all of the excuses is over...



Dear friends,

We can think of all of the excuses that we can muster for not getting out and voting on Tuesday. Yet, not to do so (i.e., vote) invalidates those complaints, because it means that just when we are about to get to a new level in our centuries-old struggle for equality, dignity, and justice in this land, we have decided that none of it was worthwhile. The formidable journalist George Curry of the Philadelphia Inquirer reiterates the aforementioned sentiment, with his usual biting analysis.

Let's "Seize the Time!"
