It is Day #3 of IndiMarin's "Week of Action for Racial Justice." Thus far, we have received a tremendous response from members regarding this initiative and are inspired by the levels of participation. Thank you for being committed allies in the Black Lives Matters movement.

DAY 3 ACTION

Voter suppression is alive and well in America, as was evidenced in Georgia yesterday by appalling delays at polling locations in Black communities. Please take action today to increase the number of Americans who are ACTIVELY ENGAGED in outreach to Black voters to assist them in both registering and signing up to vote by mail. Black voices must be fairly represented in November!

At Indivisible Marin, we have been writing and calling voters in suppression states for over a year. Recently, our small, but intrepid, phonebank team made calls to Georgia in advance of yesterday's primary to help voters get registered to vote by mail. More callers = more calls = more votes by people of color. Let's grow our numbers!

HOW YOU CAN HELP
1) Invite one or more like-minded friends in Marin to attend our Virtual Open House this Saturday, 6/13 from 11 AM - 12 PM. Then, continue to mentor your friends as they get started with voter outreach work. You can use this template to email friends as desired.

2) Donate $10 or to Black Voters Matter. It describes its mission as follows: "Our goal to increase power in our communicates. Effective voting allows a community to determine its own destiny."
