DES MOINES - On Saturday, Actress Gabrielle Union will host a "We've Got His Back" block party in Davenport as part of an African Americans for Obama outreach effort.

Gabrielle Union will talk about how President Obama and Mitt Romney offer African Americans and all Americans two fundamentally different visions of how to run the country.  President Obama is focused on creating jobs and restoring economic security. He understands that too many African Americans have been hurt by a decade of declining wages and unemployment and he's fought for policies that give everyone a fair shot and the opportunity to succeed.

In 2011, President Obama appointed Union to the National Committee for Violence Against Women. In February, she first campaigned for President Obama at North Carolina Central University.
