Description:

Let’s Keep Talking!

ACTOR (A Continuing Talk on Race) 

Join us for our final discussion in the Participatory Democracy series. This month, we will highlight down-ballot races and other things we will be voting for locally. In Arlington, we know we have the County Board race and School Board races... in addition to Kaine for Senate in Virginia. In Washington, DC, we know that Kymone Freeman and Michael Brown are both running for Congress to unseat Eleanor Holmes Norton. In Maryland, the big race is Alsobrooks v. Hogan. Also, in Maryland, a constitutional amendment guaranteeing a woman's right to reproductive freedom is on the ballot as "Question 1". Rank choice voting is on the ballot in DC (as initiative 83).

We definitely want to encourage folks to GET OUT AND VOTE!

A.C.T.O.R. (A Continuing Talk on Race) is a public discussion series. It provides the opportunity for people to come together and speak openly and honestly about issues of race, class and culture. The intent is that each person walks away from the discussion feeling something: challenged, educated, uncomfortable, enlightened, refreshed, reassured and hopefully inspired and moved to action!

On the last Sunday of each month, there is a new topic for discussion
