VIDEO: theGrio’s manifesto explains what’s at stake and what we demand for the midterm elections
The team at theGrio has put together our manifesto for the 2018 midterms to remind you why we must vote and why those votes have got to count.
When most of the people in power don’t look like you, it’s hard to relate sometimes, let alone believe, that change is possible. It’s important to remember though that this is exactly what the powerful count on: you not showing up. All the more reason to prove them wrong.
In a few weeks, Americans will once again head to the voting booth. This isn’t a Presidential election year, but the 2018 midterm elections could very well be the most pivotal election of our lifetime. We, the people, have to not only participate in the electoral process, but also educate ourselves about the issues and demand that those seeking to represent us provide more than just lip service.
