“I live in a place and among people with a complicated history with the American political system so I want to recognize and respect that voting within this system is something that some won’t be compelled to participate in BUT I also recognize that voting IS a privilege. It’s a privilege and a space that I believe is important to engage in and a space where we not only have our voices heard, but where we are also a voice for the voiceless . Whether we are voting for the environment, for indigenous rights, or any myriad of protections and policies, this process is a reminder that we still have a choice for what our future looks like. Organize. Mobilize. VOTE.”
