UPCOMING EVENTS
A UNITED APPEAL TO PRECINCT CHAIRS, COMMUNITY LEADERS, CIVIC CLUBS, AND ORGANIZATIONS
SUBJECT: Power to Action: Mobilize Now to Meet Them Where They’re Going
Fellow champions of our communities,
We face a critical moment in our history — the 2025 Texas redistricting is a distraction from the real battle. The GOP’s new maps are engineered to suppress our voice in historically Black and Latino districts, but they're not fooling us. We’re not just safeguarding our ground — we’re taking back the destination.
Our mission: meet the MAGA-Republicans where they’re heading — into Republican-held districts newly within reach — and turn them blue, or at least light pink (because even pink is better than red).
WHAT’S AT STAKE
-
TX-2: Trump 2020 ~55.6%, Biden ~42.8% — 13-point gap we can overcome.
-
TX-14: Republican safe seat ~61.6% — but suburban drift and demographic shifts could peel it back.
-
TX-15: Democratic hold but razor-thin — Trump ~47.6%, Biden ~50.5% — a true swing zone.
-
TX-22: Slight GOP edge — Trump ~51.5%, Democrats ~44.6% — trending purple.
-
TX-38: NEW district (created post-2020) with diversity: White 50.1%, Hispanic 25.9%, Black 9.6%, Asian 10.1% — lean Republican but ripe for coalition building.
If we do not mobilize now:
-
Our legacy communities will be further fractured.
-
GOP will gain even more seats — entrenching power and suppressing generational voices.
-
Opportunity lost to reshape the political map with community-born leadership.
CALL TO ACTION
We are launching a central command center to deploy a multi-district infrastructure — organizing across precincts, sharing data, training volunteers, and coordinating Town Halls, canvassing, media, and candidate recruitment.
We need YOU — precinct chairs, faith institutions, civic clubs, community organizations — to join the fight:
-
Mobilize volunteers for voter registration & early vote awareness.
-
Host district-specific Town Halls and listening tours to educate and activate voters.
-
Coordinate messaging, digital outreach, and legal support where needed.
-
Identify and support electable pro-community candidates in each target district.
Our time is now. We may have been on defense too long — but the future is ours to lead if we act.
Join us. Bring your voice, strength, and vision. Let’s prove that community power — not maps — determines who wins.
Fight with us today — and let’s win tomorrow.
Power to Action!
The Culture Commission Coalition
SOCIAL JUSTICE
The Culture Commission Coalition is calling on the community and the media to attend an urgent press conference addressing a grave civil rights violation.
On Monday, April 28, 2025, the Coalition called for justice in response to the unjust attack on Mr. Michael Singleton, an innocent man who was violently assaulted by members of the Dallas Police Department. The incident, captured on video by concerned citizens, has since circulated globally, igniting widespread outrage and calls for justice.

OUR PILLARS
SECURING
FUNDING
One of our primary objectives is to secure financial support from private and government sources to
bolster the efforts of local community initiatives.
We are committed to identifying funding opportunities,
crafting compelling proposals, and advocating for the resources needed to drive meaningful progress.
In 2024, Black-founded startups received just 0.48% of all U.S. venture capital funding—approximately $661 million out of $136 billion
GET
INVOLVED
Whether you are a grassroot organization, a potential funding partner, or an individual passionate about
community empowerment, we welcome you to join us in our mission.
Together, we can build a more
vibrant, inclusive, and resilient society.
As of 2024, only eight companies in the Fortune 500 are led by Black CEOs, representing just 1.6% of all CEOs. This is markedly disproportionate to Black Americans' 14.4% share of the U.S. population
