Hi John,
There are 15 days left until Election Day -- that means there is
officially no more time to waste.
Everything we do (or don't do) over the course of the next two weeks will have
serious implications for our future.
With that in mind, we've got three things to share that you should check out -- come see how you can help nudge the needle of our future in the right direction.
Unapologetically Progressive in Florida
October 20th at 8 p.m. ET
Tomorrow night we're sitting down with
Nancy Metayer (Candidate for Coral Springs Commissioner),
Ben Marcus (Candidate for FL-HD16),
Ricky Junquera (Candidate for FL-HD118), and
Luisa Santos (Candidate for Miami-Dade School Board, District 9) for our FINAL episode of
Unapologetically Progressive.
There can be no underselling how pivotal Florida is to the presidential election -- not just in 2020, but in pretty much every election year ever.
If you care about securing Democratic power, then Florida should be at the top of your list for places to get involved.
Join us tomorrow for Unapologetically Progressive in Florida to learn about the change these incredible young leaders hope to implement and how YOU can help them do it. RSVP now>>
This event is free!
Run for Something (The Podcast)
New Episodes every Tuesday
This is one of our favorite episodes so far. Our friend and Run for Something candidate for the Georgia state Senate,
Kim Jackson, is joining us to share her story and path to elected office.
Kim is an Episcopal priest born in the South, a queer Black woman married to a Muslim scholar, and this November,
she'll be one of the first openly LGBTQ+ members of the Georgia state Senate.
We talked about how she felt called to serve -- in faith and in politics -- and the tension between the two, her beautiful marriage, the way her campaign helped fix her broken family, and her vision for Georgia.
⚠️ Warning ⚠️: This interview is known to cause tears and in some cases, inspire people to be a positive influence in the world.
You can listen to Amanda and Kim on this week's episode of Run for Something on your preferred podcatcher tomorrow.
House Party with Run for Something
October 27th at 8 p.m. ET
In the last few days of the cycle, we're having a conversation about our future and how important it is for ALL of us to continue recruiting, training, supporting, and electing young, diverse progressives to down-ballot seats nationwide.
Buy your ticket now to join our virtual house party (our last of this cycle!) and learn how you can continue to be a part of the movement to build sustainable, permanent power for progressives nationwide.
