Black Entertainment Television (BET) invited President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden to participate in a Juneteenth special. The topics will include systemic racism in the United States. BET is no longer a Black-owned business but still has the media power to influence the Black vote.
It is interesting that they will not be interviewed together. The thing we need to look out for during the special is will BET ask the tough questions. BET must hold them accountable for their harmful actions and comments about Black people.

BIVN Statement on the Death of George Floyd
The Black Independent Voter Network mourns the death of George Floyd and all those have died unjustly by the hands of law enforcement. These incidents have shown again that Black lives do not matter. We demand for swift justice for the police officers involved and police reform starts immediately.
The sad truth is politicians from the Democratic and Republican parties continue to give lip service and no action to make changes. We need to remove our elected officials from both major political parties because they no longer serve the people. We need alternative political choices to vote for that will support transformative policy solutions to eradicate racism at all levels of our society.
