Trust Black Women VOTE from their site:

- from SisterSong // focused on Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina -

"This election season our reproductive rights are on the line. The Trust Black Women Vote 2024 campaign is critical to demonstrating our power to shape the world for our self-determination. From our local and state elections to the White House, we are entering the next phase of our fight for our inalienable right to reproductive care and uninhibited access. This election season we call upon you to Trust Black Women when we say, our reproductive freedom, our access to care, and ultimately, our lives are on the line. We are beyond shouldering the burdens of change. Still, we know we are saving ourselves by getting educated about our ballots, developing our voting plan, engaging the voters in our community, and ensuring our vote counts!

Trust Black Women. This phrase has been uttered across our social and political landscape for many years, steeped in the rich history of Black Women community and movement leaders. From Ida B. Wells to Fannie Lou Hamer and Judy Richardson, from Helen Butler to Stacey Abrams and LaTosha Brown, Black women, across generations, have taken the lead in ensuring our right to vote and laid the framework for using the ballot to save ourselves and our communities. Still, too many elected leaders continue to ignore the wisdom and advocacy of Black women to the detriment and harm of not only Black women but of us all."
