Most people believe that voters should pick our leaders, not the other way around. But right now, people in power are trying to keep us from voting so they can control our elections and seize more power for themselves.

But we won’t let them decide our future or define what democracy looks like for our communities. From August to October, GenVote and our allies are embarking on a first-of-its-kind national tour, Power Back: A Movement School for Election Defense.

Together, we’ll get trained on:

• Election Protection 101
• Know Your Rights
• Our Work Doesn’t End on Election Day: Ballot Curing and Certification
• Creative Action Planning For Post-Election Scenarios
• Activating the Youth Vote
• Election Defense Lessons From Youth Movements Around the World
• Reimagining a Just Democracy for All

Tour stops are free and open to community members of all ages, with a special focus on students and young people. Light refreshments and lunch will be provided.
