Whether you feel passionate or indifferent about this year’s elections, come, be inspired and encouraged, and be empowered to participate in ways that are meaningful to you that ensure your voice, along with all of our votes, count.”

Guest speakers

Guest speakers include Rev. Lisa Garcia-Sampson, executive director of UU Justice NC, and Jennifer Roberts, NC co-leader for the Carter Center’s Strengthening Democracy Project and a former mayor of Charlotte.
