Young Black lawyers and law students are stepping up their efforts ahead of the general election by engaging with Black voters in key battleground states. The Young Black Lawyers’ Organizing Coalition (YBLOC) has assembled a team of legal professionals from historically Black colleges and universities to address voter turnout and combat disenfranchisement within the Black community.
The coalition's mission involves conducting educational focus groups in Michigan, Georgia, North Carolina, and Texas to identify and overcome barriers that Black voters face when registering and casting their ballots. By actively listening to the concerns and experiences of Black voters, YBLOC aims to restore faith in American democracy and empower the historically disadvantaged voting bloc.
