What impact do you think Vice President Harris's Economic Opportunity Tour will have on Black communities?
@9LXQYZ52wks2W
I think black communities will be uplifted by the oppurtunity.
It would bring more peace and equality to our state.
@ISIDEWITH2wks2W
How do you feel about the government focusing specifically on economic opportunities for Black Americans?
I don´t have a problem with it, Black Americans have worked hard to get the same treatment as a white Americans so i think this is a good thing and a big step forward for black american citizens.

It's good! It is beneficial to a marginalized group to have another chance of financial growth and empowerment.
@9LXSQK72wks2W
It is equality, not special treatment for different people of another race. Everyone should have the same opportunities and treatment. The only time someone should get more opportunities is when they are struggling financially, physically, etc. It should have nothing to do with race.
That’s unfair but also right because at one point it was all about whites.
