The oldest Black newspaper in the West has officially endorsed Dr. Butch Ware for governor.
Why? Because of his:
âś… Lifelong commitment to Black liberation
âś… Lived experience of housing precarity and family incarceration
âś… Refusal of corporate money
âś… Concrete plans for housing, healthcare, education, and decarceration
The crises facing Black, Brown, working‑class, and poor communities demand a fundamentally different governing vision. That’s what we’re building.
