Voting is the bedrock of democracy, but our right to vote is being undercut—from gerrymandering to voter purging to voter intimidation. Women of color are leading the charge to fight back, across the country and right here in Newark.

At our next PSEG True Diversity Film Series event, we’ll speak with a panel curated by Shennell McCloud of Project READY. Learn how our panelists are using voting as a tool to transform their communities by registering new voters, increasing voter turnout, reshaping policies and developing future leaders.
