Race Forward: Our Work is Not Over: We Must Continue to Organize

For Immediate Release

WASHINGTON – Following a hotly contested presidential election, Donald J. Trump won a second term as president of the United States. The national racial equity organization, Race Forward, released the following statement:

“The electoral results are a strong indicator our fight for racial justice must continue. It is imperative that we view these results as one chapter in a long struggle to advance a multi-racial democracy. This is not the end; it is a continuation of our work.

“In light of this moment, it is clear there are those in this country who have not embraced the idea that a racially just democracy carries with it the promise of opportunity where all can thrive. Rather, they desire to hold power, influence, and wealth among only a few. This is not the promise of America and we vow to continue our fight for a society where all can prosper, no matter their race, nationality, religion, gender, sexual identity, or political party. 

“We know there is power in our collective work and we must not relinquish or cede that power. Race Forward is issuing the call to protect and defend the rights of all Americans and to uphold the constitution of these United States. We must all commit to embracing civil discourse, the process of democracy, and to centering the needs of the most vulnerable amongst us. We condemn those who seek to usurp the democratic process through retaliation, intimidation, and violence. 

“At Race Forward, we will continue to work to advance a multiracial democratic society that serves all of us.”
