Rev. Lennox Yearwood: Black Voters Want Green Candidates

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

The Joint Center For Political and Economic Studies recently released an opinion poll on African-American viewpoints on Climate Change and the Mid-Term elections that shows that YES African-Americans really do care about the environment and want our political candidates to also care about the environment. Reverend Lennox Yearwood of the Hip Hop Caucus put his two cents in on the matter and gave the mainstream enviro-world a big fat “I told you so” in an article he posted on the Huffington Post.
