Love across the aisle
The newest installment of our volunteer video series features Soniyyah,
a CCL group leader in Fort Smith, Arkansas. Soniyyah, who goes by Sonna,
describes her community as "for the most part conservative, both in
white and the black parts of town."
Her powerful message: "It is possible to live in this world and to love
someone who voted differently than you."

Grassroots outreach: Superhero tabling prop
Looking for a creative tabling idea? How about this cute prop CCL's
Portland chapter made? The cutout features "Captain Dividend" and canine
sidekick "Carbon Fee Fee." It has been a hit with kids and adults alike
at several tabling events! This forum post

shares more details about how volunteers brainstormed and created this
prop.
CCL volunteers are regularly activating the " five levers
