Today’s racial justice movement is inspiring hope and change. To seize on this unique time in history, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and the National Urban League are joining forces to encourage all individuals to exercise their legal right and moral obligation, to register and vote in the upcoming election.
Join us for an engaging conversation covering such topics as:
Emphasizing every vote matters and why it is vitally important to express individual voices
Systemic barriers to voting and how they disenfranchise certain blocs of voters
How to vote in today’s pandemic environment: vote by mail, drop boxes, and voting in-person
How can one ensure their vote will be counted - what are the risks: fraud, not being counted, etc.
The census and how that ties into voting, representation, resources, etc.
