We Can Fix This

This weekend is the Republican Party of Florida and the Georgia Republican Party Quarterly Meeting in Sarasota, Florida and Agusta Georgia mark the beginning of the Trump 2020 Campaign. On March 8, 2020, BlakPac and Blacks for Trump organized one of the largest groups of African-Americans ever to assemble at a Donald Trump Rally in Panama City Beach Florida.  Prominent Black Republicans KCarl Smith and CS Bennett stood proudly behind the President.

However, I want to remind the Republican National Committee and the Republican Party of Florida and Georgia that Black Republicans are more than stage props and entertainer.   KCarl, CS and many others are dignified leaders that deserve a prominent role with the Campaign.or even in this administration that is lacking in Black diversity.

Honestly, It hurts me to keep having to remind the President and the RNC that with only one Black in the House, (Rep Will Hurd) and one Black in the Senate, (Sen.Tim Scott) we must make a conscious effort to do better from now through the re-election of 2020

Truthfully, BlakPac is the only entity brave enough to speak up, If  I am ostracized by my fellow Republicans, at least I know where they stand, but in order to get to a Colorblind society, we first have to integrate and then include people of different backgrounds and ethnicities.  Our conservative values can bind us together if we are ready to move forward in unity.

It's time to open the dialogue and come to a solution that works for every American.
