Jack,
It’s mid-month, and we have got to hit our goal, especially now that we know how much work we have ahead of us -- the redrawn maps are atrocious. We are so close, and if you don’t want to read the rest of my email, just donate right here in solidarity with democracy and fair maps >>
But please keep reading because I want to talk to you about the power of voting. Our organization is led by Black women, and we all know firsthand what it feels like to be disenfranchised. The New North Carolina Project is led by a diverse group of people who understand at a visceral level what it feels like to not be heard.
We are passionate about people of color being able to vote in our state and having policies that reflect inclusive values. The redrawn maps are not inclusive -- and it is critical to make sure everyone understands that showing up to the polls is the best way to connect to our source of power.
We want Black and Brown voters to know that they have so much power that candidates will fight for their support instead of the other way around – like it is now with these new awful maps. We outnumber them -- if we show up to the polls, we can beat these maps.
We’re here to make a difference. We’re here to change the face of representation in our state. Will you please help us hit our mid-month goal by midnight tonight by chipping in $33 right now? $33 will get us the resources we need to register one voter – and we intend to register as many as possible. Heck, if you can, please consider registering TWO voters! I wouldn't ask if this weren't important.
one voter
two voters
three voters
In solidarity for fair maps,
Dr. Aimy Steele
