In this spirit, BET is launching a campaign aimed at mobilizing Black voters by empowering them to exercise their voting rights, safeguarding them against disenfranchisement and suppression, and educating them about their collective influence. To enhance this initiative, BET has partnered with the National Urban League and will introduce a series of activities and events designed to maximize voter registration. The campaign will kick off with the BET Vote Fest rally in Philadelphia on September 20.
