We need that kind of energy in our lives now! On Thursday, October 2 at 7:00PM ET, we’re going to talk to Stacey about where we are as a country, what’s at stake for all of us, and how we can fight back. This is a conversation about how we win and how we build the power we need at every level of government, and you don’t want to miss it!

Until Stacey took the streets beginning in 2013, two-thirds of voters in Georgia were white – even though white people make up a little less than half the population.1 The Democratic party at the time wanted to double down on white, middle-of-the road voters to wrest the state away from the extremists running it.2 Stacey knew they were wrong – there was a growing population of Black and Brown residents in Georgia who wanted better education, better pay, and a better way of life. She knew if she could get them to vote, they could make a huge difference. And when the establishment said no, she created her own voter registration organizations. Being from Georgia myself, I’m so excited about how Stacey has transformed the state, eventually helping to send two Democrats to the U.S Senate in 2020. Now she is known nationwide as one of the most respected organizers in the country. As a grassroots women’s organization, Red Wine & Blue knows what it’s like to be told no at every turn. But we have to push forward anyway, and Stacey is the perfect person to show us the way. Join Red Wine & Blue and Stacey Abrams to talk about why local organizing matters, how we build real power, and the steps we must take to protect our future!” |
