Voting and Why It Is Important Program
Voting is power. It allows us to have a say in government affairs. Casting your vote indicates to political leaders how you want them to exercise their collective rights. The equal power of the people is what defines a republic, and it is what makes our democracy work. Citizens can vote for Democrats, Republicans, or independent parties—this is their choice. Make your voice heard with your vote!
In 1965, the Voting Rights Act was implemented because African Americans protested, fought, and died for the right of all people to vote. African Americans led the way for the freedom of all people in the USA and worldwide. Many African Americans vote to honor those who sacrificed their lives for the freedoms we enjoy today. Voting registration is available at our office every Wednesday from 10:30 AM to 4:00 PM. Please call to schedule your appointment.
Participating in elections gives African Americans the chance to back candidates and policies that tackle systemic inequalities, strengthen education and healthcare, and work toward a fairer society. Tune in to the BHS Podcast to hear more about voting and the Elevating Civil Rights Program. Each election is a chance to influence the future of Houston and the nation, helping to choose leaders who share our values, priorities, and vision for a better city and a better world.
