HOST A SOUL FOOD DINNER!
Black families, this election year, let’s come together over a plate of good food and good conversation.
Black Faith Votes is calling on YOU to host a Soul Food Dinner, a powerful tradition with a purpose. These dinners are more than just a meal – they’re a chance to connect with our community, share our hopes and fears, and strategize for a brighter future.
A Soul Food Dinner is more than just a meal! It’s a powerful gathering of community members coming together to:
- Share Stories & Experiences: We’ll hear from each other about our hopes, fears, and the challenges we face in our communities.
- Connect Across Generations: Young people and elders will share wisdom and inspire each other.
- Learn & Discuss: We’ll delve deeper into the issues that matter most to us, from voting and politics to community building and social justice.
- Take Action Together: We’ll strategize and plan for how we can make a difference in our communities, both now and in the future.
At a Soul Food Dinner, you’ll:
- Enjoy a delicious meal: Savor the flavors of traditional soul food while connecting with others.
- Participate in meaningful discussions: Share your thoughts and perspectives on important topics.
