Protect Your Vote This Election Season: Community Dialogue

Election season is approaching, and many Milwaukee residents face real barriers to staying informed and making sure their vote is counted. Join One MKE, Metcalfe Park Community Bridges Inc., and Near West Side Partners for a community-centered, nonpartisan evening focused on practical vote-protection steps and civic participation in Milwaukee.

The program will feature a screening of the documentary Black Vote Rising, which highlights Metcalfe Park leaders who worked through obstacles to the ballot box and helped protect voting access in Black and Brown communities during the COVID-19 pandemic. The screening will be followed by a panel discussion and community talk back.

The Milwaukee Election Commission will also join us to share clear, nonpartisan vote-protection action steps and provide take-home resources you can use ahead of upcoming elections. Light food and refreshments will be provided.
