Alaska Junction (corner of Alaska Way and California Avenue in West Seattle)All ages are welcome!
Rev. Dr. William Barber, president of the North Carolina NAACP, is organizing a Mass Moral March in Raleigh, NC on Saturday February 8th. Seattleites will stand in support of the marchers in North Carolina.• According to the ACLU, close to half the states in the U.S. now have some form of voting restrictions.
• These restrictions are making it harder for people to vote, particularly people of color, students, and people with disabilities.
• Voter suppression tactics include voter ID laws, elimination of early voting, restrictions on voter registration drives and barriers to voting for people with criminal convictions.
• Voting needs to be free, fair, and accessible!For more information contact Reverend Peg Morgan, senior minister at the Westside Unitarian Universalist Congregation pegmorgan@comcast.net 206-909-2856
