Voter Suppression is nothing new. As a Black American woman, I am very aware of the threats to democracy that exist against marginalized communities.

I know we would all like to believe that voter suppression is a tactic of the past relegated to the jim crow south. However with the rise of social media and the rapid pace at which harmful rhetoric about people with liberal/ progressive views and people of color has the ability to spread we have to be our own advocates in ensuring our voices are heard.

Tired of political talk, slander, and hype? Same. Sick of the anger and hate and fear being fed to us daily? ?? Here are the 3 things I'm doing to get through the next 3 weeks: 1.
