Part of TWP’s ongoing efforts to engage our network in the elections and make our voices heard is to bring a series of panel discussions around elections and representation. These panels are just one element in a series of conversations, videos, projections and organizing initiatives to get out the vote because our vote is our voice and our opportunity to advance the values we believe in! #ourvoteisourvoice

About the Panel Discussion:
An unprecedented number of young women, people of color and LGBT people are seeking office with the goal of making sure that the lived experiences of marginalized people are part of shaping the policies that impact our day to day lives. This is key to ensuring that the very real challenges facing our communities are addressed and no one is left behind.
