Love it! My son Jamal is a successful real estate agent in Orlando, and he's been waiting to hear if Kamala would have any agenda specifically for Black men as she does for so many other constituents. I'm glad to see her put her support of Black men in writing. Thank you for shedding light on this, Van.
As a white woman, I'm aware of the injustices, lack of respect, and criticism of Black men - but obviously, I can't know it anywhere close to someone living it. I'm ashamed to admit the silence from the Democratic Party flew right over my head without me saying "wait a minute... you're missing people". Hearing you speak to the hurt was something that needs to be heard. It's in my heart now, and now that it lives there, it won't be something that will go away. What that means is I can see it and speak when I see it happening. Thank you for that.
We all fall short of understanding other perspectives. That’s why need fora like this — just to hear from each other and learn from each other. I have blind spots too. It’s just a part of being human. Thanks for hearing me out!

Blessings to Jamal! That’s a tough business in a tough state! You must be proud. 👍🏾💪🏾💜
