In 2016, Hillary Clinton won 94% of African American women voters.  It was the latest example in a long tradition of Black woman backing Democratic candidates.  The Dems are hoping for a repeat of that support for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.  But there are differences this year.

COVID-19 is decimating communities of color at a much higher rate than white communities, in terms of health and economics. The Black Lives Matter protests have pointed out that young Black voters aren't so much following the party line as demanding  some return for their loyalty in terms of policy changes.

Glynda Carr is a civil rights activist and founder, president and CEO of Higher Heights for America. She joins In Focus to talk about whether Black Women will turn out in the same numbers for this election and, if they pull the Biden/Harris ticket over the line at the polls, what they expect to see in the first 100 days.
