Edited to add that it is a verifiable fact that Black women show up to vote and more than 90% of Black women vote Democratic. Year after year after year. Even when they didn't get everything they wanted.

I have never once heard a Black woman say, "Oh well, the Democratic candidate didn't give me everything I wanted so I think I won't vote" or "the Democratic candidate didn't move me so I'll vote for Trump" or "Biden hasn't stopped this thousand year war in the middle east so maybe I'll give RFK Jr. a try, especially since he promises to defund the NIH."

The United States owes our democracy to Black citizens, especially Black women. Without them, Trump would have been reelected in 2020. FACT.
