Hillary Clinton to Visit Clark Atlanta University

Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton is just days away from her stop in Atlanta. Clinton will visit the campus of the historically black university (HBCU) Clark Atlanta on Friday.

Clinton’s visit to Atlanta is not only important for her campaign, but also for one of her most powerful supporters in Georgia, Congressman John Lewis.

Lewis has compared his support of Clinton to his fight for civil rights 50 years ago in Selma, Alabama. In his announcement of “African-Americans for Hillary” Lewis noted Clinton’s promise to expand voting rights for all Americans and promise to advocate for HBCUs if she becomes president.

This event is hosted by the African-Americans for Hillary Grassroots Organization. The event starts at 2:30 p.m and will be held in the Epps Gynamsium. Doors open at 1:00 p.m. Read Full via CBS46.com

  1. It is one thing to show up and do a political stump for votes. However, it is another when you bring funding and resources to HBCUs. We received the same touring from Obama with no return on investment. HBCUs and alumni need to bring more political and funding clout to get the Democrats, Republicans, and Independents.
