MassVote: Voting Rights as Civil Rights (10/27)

by | Oct 25, 2020

With the November 3 General Election rapidly approaching, the urgency of the election is becoming clearer and clearer. Major events in 2020, like the COVID19 pandemic and repeated cases of police brutality, have revealed the inequities and inequalities that permeate our state and country. Voting is more important than ever, but the act of voting is rarely made easy.

Join us Tuesday, October 27, as Cheryl Clyburn Crawford, the Executive Director at MassVOTE, discusses the history of the voting rights movement, challenges facing the movement today, and why voting is arguably more important now than ever.
