Seeking to harness what it sees as the momentum of the 2024 presidential election, the Black Conservative Federation is launching a two-day summit in Washington, D.C., next month aimed at bringing together Black conservatives and cultivating the next generation of leaders.
The second Black Conservative Federation Solution Summit will be held July 11-12, bringing together elected officials, influencers, policy experts and strategists for what organizers hope will be a series of "bold, solution-driven conversations" on the most urgent issues facing Black America today.

That is HUGE. The endless and baseless persecution of President Trump (and getting shot) really resonated with black American men. AND they are paying attention to his policies and how they help all Americans. Black American men saw what Trump 45 did for minority jobs and incomes and want to keep that up. Plus they are really pissed at all the Democrat kowtowing to illegals.
I’m hoping they encourage blacks to make babies in marriage and raise them in two-parent households. From what I’ve seen that changes everything, including how much gimmie-dat attitude they have.
Have them tell their constituents to:
Celebrate "Republicans Freed the Slaves Month"!
