Beyonce and Her Mom Launch “I Did My Part” To Help Underserved with Covid-19
Beyoncé and her mother Tina Knowles-Lawson are trying to help accelerate coronavirus testing in underserved communities, where a lot of minorities live. And they’re challenging other celebrities to do the same.
The mother-daughter duo launched the #IDIDMYPART campaign to motivate Houston’s black and brown communities to take COVID-19 tests. Celebrities like Tyler Perry and Octavia Spencer are continuing the challenge in other cities.https://t.co/DWg4do9h7a pic.twitter.com/Ona6utpbBC

The campaign is called #IDidMyPart, and they started it in Houston. But other celebrities are joining in . . . Tyler Perry says he’ll help implement the initiative in Atlanta, Octavia Spencer aims to set up sites across Mississippi, and Cookie and Magic Johnson will lead the charge in Detroit.
