Empowering Young Black Voters to Build a Brighter Future

Why I’m Voting

The Fight

Traditionally, young Black Americans have had limited civic engagement compared to other demographics. “Why I’m Voting” is a political commentary podcast that educates and motivates our disaffected youth. Subject matter experts and social media influencers discuss political, social, cultural, and economic issues that affect the Black community. When young people understand the policies and stakes, they make informed decisions at the voting booth.

If you want to improve the quality of your life you must improve the quality of your elected officials. That’s why I’m voting.

Pressing Issues

Every facet of human existence is influenced by politics. Our food, income, and the education our children receive are all regulated by government. Understanding government and politics empowers us to navigate and shape these influences to build a better quality of life.

— Economy

According to a Pew Research Center poll in February 2024, 54% of Black adults worry about at least one economic issue almost every day.

— Social Justice

Psychological and emotional distress are common consequences experienced by individuals marginalized by social injustice.

— Education

Black Americans have faced centuries of anti-Black racism and oppression that have denied them access to quality education.

— Employment

Black Americans have had unemployment rates higher than white Americans due to discrimination, and job quality.

— Healthcare

Black Americans face persistent disparities in health care and health outcomes which negatively affects our life expectancy.

— Criminal Justice

Black Americans are five times more likely to be stopped without just cause than white people. 65% of Black adults have felt targeted because of their race.
