Young People come out in record numbers....Yet issues effecting African American Latina/o, Asian and Native youth are not spoken about! Xenophobic Laws and Police Brutality against Spanish speaking immigrants soars! The Black and Latino Female and Male Prison Population continues to increase! Gentrification is displacing millions of low income people! HIV/AIDS is a pandemic in communities of color!
Does it matter if a Black man or a White woman wins the Presidency?
