WIL Listen Episode 7: The Future of Our Democracy: Are We Bending Towards Justice?
This month Elizabeth Stribling with South Carolina Women in Leadership talks with Emily Geiger Smith, author of Thank You for Voting: the Maddening, Enlightening, Inspiring Truth About Voting in America, and David Daley, author of the National bestseller, Ratf**ked: Why Your Vote Doesn’t Count and Unrigged: How Americans Are Battling Back to Save Democracy. In this episode you’ll hear their thoughts on: legislative redistricting currently underway in South Carolina and what invested organizations like SC WIL and citizens might do to make sure their votes count for the next ten years; the ebb and flow of voting rights and access through the years and their perspectives as to whether we are “bending towards justice”; how the “boiling point” were at, demonstrated by the insurrection on the Capitol on January 6, makes horrifying sense; and if we can be optimistic about the future of our democracy.

Make a Plan to Vote! Virtual Workshop
Make a Plan to Vote! Virtual Workshop
Historically, voter turn-out in midterm elections is low, but many municipal government offices (e.g. mayors, school boards, local city/county councils) that have a great deal of impact on our everyday lives are often decided by a very small margin in these elections. Make sure you know the ways you can vote this November and have a plan to meet the requirements and deadlines so your vote counts.
