Support the Power of Black Voters
August 24 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Force Multiplier presents an informative and inspiring Listening and Learning Together free event.
The Supreme Court has decimated the Voting Rights Act.
Hear from two organizations leading the fight to restore the power of Black voters.
In Callais SCOTUS dealt the final blow to the Voting Rights Act, which supported civil rights for more than half a century and produced a more representative democracy.
Its demise has spurred significant racially-motivated gerrymandering and redistricting. Simultaneously, the rage provoked by the decision has resulted in a groundswell of African-American turnout in special elections and primaries. Grassroots groups across the country are building on that interest to ensure all citizens can and do vote in November and beyond.
LaTosha Brown co-founded Black Voters Matter in 2016. She was a co-founder of the Black Voters Matter Fund and Capacity Building Institute, raising millions for grassroots organizations in the South and Midwest. She also founded the Southern Black Girls & Women’s Consortium, a $100 million initiative investing in Black women and girls.
Lauren Groh-Wargo, Chief Executive Officer of Fair Fight and longtime colleague/advisor to Stacey Abrams, helped build one of the nation’s most influential organizations to protect voting, expand civic participation, and challenge voter suppression.
Force Multiplier, an independent, all-volunteer organization, can help you maximize the impact of your political investments of time and money by doing the research so you don’t have to.
