So it happened. No this is not a drill, no this is not a test, this is real life! What most of us took as a joke really happened.

As African Americans and people of color, as a segment of the population we understand that many of the Trump policies and platform may not align to the best interest of our communities. A Trump presidency may even put a financial, educational, and cultural strain on our communities; however, none of this remains to be seen for right now.
