Don’t Let Leaders Forget Who They Work For

Описание: Far too often, people treat elected officials like they’re untouchable, like they exist above us. But the truth is they only have power because we give it to them. Without our votes, our voices, and our communities behind them, they have nothing. That means we hold the real power, and it’s up to us to make sure they use it for us.

Accountability doesn’t stop once someone is elected—or even when they leave office. If a leader isn’t fighting for the promises they made or the communities they serve, they should feel pressure from us every day. Don’t let them hide behind offices or political games. Demand they show up, stay engaged, and actively work for the people who put them there.

Voting is just the start. Organizing, speaking out, and staying involved are how we make sure leaders follow through and actually deliver. Representation isn’t just a seat at the table—it’s being respected, included, and empowered to influence decisions that affect our lives, from schools to city councils to Congress.

Black voters, our power is real. We decide who has it, and we can take it away if they fail us. Hold officials accountable, push for meaningful change, and make sure our communities are prioritized every single day.
