IGJ NEXT MONTHLY MEETING: July 16, 7:00 - 8:30 PM EST

THE HISTORY OF VOTER SUPPRESSION IN AMERICA: WHAT'S NEXT?

SPECIAL GUEST: KADIDA NATASHA KENNER

Join our special guest, Kadida Natasha Kenner, a long-time voting rights advocate, as we commemorate John Lewis's July 17th passing. Kadida will cover the history of voter suppression in the United States and what we can do to combat it. We will also cover IGJ's voter registration initiative to register progressive voters in advance of the PA Supreme Court retention races in November. We must do all we can to fight voter suppression and retain our three progressives on the PA Supreme Court! 

About our speaker: Kadida Natasha Kenner is the founding Chief Executive Officer of both the New PA Project Education Fund and the New Pennsylvania Project – both voting rights organizations. A longtime voter rights advocate, Kadida has led efforts to stop the passage of a judicial gerrymandering constitutional amendment, raise the minimum wage, fairly fund public education, promote tax fairness, protect federal courts from problematic judicial nominees, and protect the state courts from extremist attempts to undermine their independence. The Temple University graduate resides in the Philly suburbs and counts civil rights organizing icon, and West Chester, Pennsylvania native Bayard Rustin as one of her hometown civil rights heroes.
