Readers Write: Trump has been good for black Americans

The Island Now

The 71-year-old white President, Donald Trump, asked the black population – “what have you got to lose” by voting for me?

He has been in office less that two years and he has reduced the unemployment rate of African-Americans to the lowest percentage ever.

I believe that since the nation is split down the middle in support and hatred of President Trump, the African-American community must realize that if only 15 to 20 percent of them join forces with those voters who supported him, they could change the direction of America.

If they do, there will not be a blue wave coming in November. A black wave is coming.
