The Huffington Post is a big staple for progressives. Not always so kind and open to greens. So, we appreciate when they give us a shout out. And, this was a good one. Excerpt from story today by Tamika Thompson over at the Huffington Post. Full story here.
Clemente said that it is now her goal to bring the young, African-American, Latino, working class and often voice-less members of the hip-hop community into the political arena by urging them to register and vote Green this fall.
“We’re asking to get 5 percent of the electorate so we can be at the table,” Clemente said. “There’s no reason that there’s only two parties at the table.”
