A huge number of people are already getting fucked over when it comes to being allowed to cast a vote in the upcoming elections. Let’s try to minimize what that number COULD be as much as possible.
It might also be useful to have the number for the ACLU written down (or already in your phone) so you can CALL THEM while still at the polling place and get whatever information is needed in order to see about having the ACLU sue them. Write down names. Get witnesses. Take photos. MAKE IT VERY CLEAR TO THE POLLSTERS THAT YOU ARE GOING TO HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE. (Unless you have reason to believe they’re going to be assholes and try to have you arrested for doing so, in which case, be as subtle as possible.)
Anonymous asked: Your tag on the Abigail Disney post about voting made me think of this: In the U.K, have y'all caught wind about all the stuff going on in a lot of states over here that are either illegally taking away people's ability to vote, or trying to put in regulations to legal bar whole groups of people from being able to vote? That news keeps getting buried over here, so it made me wonder if you're getting those stories at all? :o

Abigail Disney has no control or input on the operations of the corporation, she is a Disney heiress and, in that respect, nothing else. She puts her money towards philanthropy, especially women’s movements around the globe and peace organizations like Peace is Loud and the Global Fund for Women. She is a documentary filmmaker who explores these themes as well.
There are problematic family investments she earns money from that, legally, she cannot divest from. Instead, she donates these profits to charities that counter to those investments.
Reblogging this version because I needed to read this after watching the video
This will be the most consequential election of our lifetime, and yet only 28% of young people age 18-29 say they will certainly vote in the midterms. That number is unacceptable, especially given we have the most to lose, our future and every social issue you claim to care about is at stake.
