WATCH: Paint The Polls Black - Town Hall, The Group Chat

When we unite as voters and make our demands loud and clear, we create a brighter future.

Voter registration deadlines are approaching in several states, so it's especially important that we mobilize our community to use our power at the polls.

But this will require each of us to do our part. And what better way than starting a conversation in the group chat?

We all have them—from WhatsApp with family to text chains with friends, group chats keep us connected, sharing news, making plans, spilling tea, and staying updated.

Bring your group chat for tonight's conversation on reaching everyone ahead of this important election. We'll be live tonight, October 7th, at 8 p.m. EST for a crucial discussion.
