This Nonprofit Is Empowering the African American Community During COVID-19

COVID-19 is a great equalizer in many ways. Almost everyone is susceptible to the new coronavirus, no matter race or socioeconomic status. But some, including African Americans, the elderly, and the recently incarcerated, are more at risk.

Clovia Lawrence, co-founder of Project Give Back to Community, a non-profit based in Richmond, Virginia, joins The Daily Signal podcast to explain how she is stepping up to serve African Americans affected by the pandemic. Lawrence, or “Miss Community” as some call her, says it’s critical to “go back and give to the community that has so freely given to us.”

Also on today’s show, we share your letters to the editor and a good news story about Fainting Goat Spirits, a family owned and operated distillery that has shifted their operation from whisky and vodka to hand sanitizer during COVID-19.
