As the nation hurtles towards one of the most pivotal elections in recent history, the Sundial Group of Companies has launched a critical voter education series, "Paint the Polls Black." This ambitious initiative aims to inform, mobilize, and protect the voting rights of Black communities across the country in the crucial weeks leading up to Election Day on November 5. But what does this initiative really entail, and what are the stakes for Black voters?

Let's start with the basics. "Paint the Polls Black" will host a series of virtual town halls, each tackling specific issues that are of utmost importance to the community. These events will feature voting and election experts, public officials, and artists discussing the issues that directly impact our communities and providing voters with the resources they need. But what about the issues that aren't being addressed? What about the ones that are being swept under the rug?

Take, for example, reproductive justice. What does this issue mean for Black women, who are disproportionately affected by restrictive abortion laws? What about gun violence? How does this issue impact Black communities, who are disproportionately affected by gun violence? And what about voter suppression? How can we combat these tactics and ensure that our voices are heard?

These are just a few of the questions that "Paint the Polls Black" aims to address. But what about the ones that aren't being asked? What about the ones that are being ignored? Take, for example, the issue of police brutality. How does this issue impact Black communities, who are disproportionately affected by police violence? What about the issue of systemic racism? How does this issue impact Black communities, who are disproportionately affected by systemic racism?

These are just a few of the questions that "Paint the Polls Black" aims to address. But what about the ones that aren't being asked? What about the ones that are being ignored? Take, for example, the issue of climate change. How does this issue impact Black communities, who are disproportionately affected by environmental racism? What about the issue of economic inequality? How does this issue impact Black communities, who are disproportionately affected by economic inequality?

These are just a few of the questions that "Paint the Polls Black" aims to address. But what about the ones that aren't being asked? What about the ones that are being ignored?
