He used the opportunity to encourage everyone in the Black community to get their vaccine.

"A lot of people are benefiting from the vaccine and understanding the real truth about it and understanding that it's really there for good to make sure that you are not harmed by this virus," Bowen said. "I wanna make sure that folks are being very cautious, being careful, and taking care of themselves and their families so that we can take care of our whole community."

There will be at least tow more vaccine clinics hosted by Gee's Clippers. One of them is on April 10 and the other is April 17.
