About 100 Black Men

The national organization of 100 Black Men of America, Incorporated is leading a national campaign to register as many black men as possible through the #Real MenVote100 Mission. In addition, the aim is to encourage more Black men to get out and vote in their various local communities around the country, to take people to the polls on Election Day, and to serve as poll monitors on Election Day to ensure the fairness and integrity of the process. The #RealMenVote 100 project is a 2018 Civic Engagement Challenge in partnership with the National Coalition on Black Civic Partnership’s Unity ’18 Campaign and C.T. Vivian Leadership Institute.
