Title: Voting Rights in 2024 and Beyond: Empowering Communities When Democracy is Under Attack
Date: October 25th, 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm EDT
Location: Virtual Webinar
Presented by Human Rights First’s Emerging Leaders Advisory Board (ELAB), this webinar will focus on election protection in 2024 and beyond. Our democracy is under threat by extremist actors attempting to disenfranchise voters and undermine faith and confidence in elections, but we are fighting back. Our panelists outline critical work to disrupt authoritarian strategies and empower communities to defend voting rights and a multiracial, pluralist democracy.
Esteemed panelists:
- Elizabeth Yates, Ph.D., Associate Director for Democracy Protection at Human Rights First
- Christina Das, Attorney at the NAACP Legal Defense & Education Fund (LDF)
- Ashleigh Maciolek, Policy Associate for Democracy at the Brennan Center for Justice
