WELCOME listeners to today’s episode of the “Black Business Roundtable! I am your host
Doug Blacksher broadcasting to you LIVE from the city of Diversity Oakland California! The recent storms that hit Northern California were something unheard of and we had an Atmospheric River that deluged the SF Bay Area, 3 feet of Snow in the Sierras and the Northern California Dams are getting a bit of a head start on winter!
Today’s show highlights:
Local community activism and the importance and value of voting! We lose many good grass roots candidates that run in our elections all because those of YOU that COULD get out and vote DON’T VOTE. Why is this opportunity to bring CHANGE not of importance to EVERY ELIGIBLE voter? It is not the fault of those THAT DO vote as they are making the effort. Due to the Pandemic VOTING was made convenient and safe to address COVID-19 compliance in States such as here in California by sending out mail-in ballots to keep all communities safer especially those most vulnerable, including communities of color.
