Democratic Senate candidate Doug Jones, who is running against Republican Roy Moore, is courting the Black vote, and that could make all the different in the Senate race.

You can’t sit on the sidelines and cheer for teams to win. You have to get into the game, it is a full-contact, participatory endeavor,” Booker told a crowd of Jones supporters. “The opposite of justice is not injustice, it is inaction, it is indifference, silence. We have to remind people that faith without works is dead.” Visit www.thegrio.com for full article.
