“There's so many things that people are not understanding about our African-American communities, and the great things that happen there, and we need to make sure that we get the word out and partner better and be advocates for those that have been disenfranchised in the past,” said Communications Chair for the Berrien County Democratic Party Angela Bell.
Attendees were encouraged to bring a non-perishable food donation for the local food pantry.
