Black History Is Worth Protecting

February 6, 2026

Urban radio should support and spread the word to get out and vote. Black History Month exists because Black people refused to let our stories be erased. This year marks 100 years since communities first organized to make sure Black history was told honestly. That work mattered then — and it still matters now.

Over the past few years, Black history has been under attack. Books are being removed. Truth is being softened. And our communities are being pushed out of decisions that affect our lives.

That’s why supporting this work matters. If you’re able, you can chip in today to help Black Voters Matter keep organizing and protecting our communities.

At Black Voters Matter, we work year-round to support local leaders, show up in overlooked communities, and make sure Black folks have the tools to be heard — not just on Election Day, but every day.

This Black History Month, we’re asking you to stand with us.

Your support helps us keep telling the truth, building power, and showing up where it counts.
