Join MAS PACE as we host a screening of the film Suppressed: The Fight To Vote
Suppressed: The Fight to Vote, the new documentary by Robert
Greenwald (director of Outfoxed, Walmart: The High Cost of Low
Price, and Making A Killing: Guns, Greed, & the NRA), weaves
together personal stories from voters across the state of Georgia to
paint an undeniable picture of voter suppression in the 2018
midterm election where Stacey Abrams fought to become the first
Black female governor in the U.S. The issues Georgians faced
included polling place closures, voter purges, missing absentee
ballots, extreme wait times and a host of voter ID issues ? all of
which disproportionately prevented many students and people of
color from casting their ballots. Suppressed: The Fight to Vote
features experts, poll watchers and everyday Georgians speaking
to the reality of voter suppression and the threat it poses in 2020. In
a race that was ultimately decided by 54,723 votes, the film
exposes how the basic constitutional right to vote continues to be
under siege in America. #FightToVote
Screening will be followed by a discussion and calls to action.
When: Saturday February 8th, 2020 We will begin at 2:30pm
Where: Malcolm X Library in Southeast San Diego
There is much at stake in the 2020 elections and the voter suppression so many communities have faced is real, especially communities of color. Join us in these meaningful discussions.
