00:00I believe voting is the premier alternative

00:06to us giving our bodies away.

00:10Voting is how we fight back.

00:14Honestly and truthfully,

00:16I do not want to see us give any more blood

00:19to changing the world and shaping it the way

00:21that we need it to be when there's opportunity

00:31And I think it was he that said it.

00:34You can say that you don't think any progress has happened

00:37before a black woman to be at the top of the ticket

00:42when black women have not had the right to vote
