 26th marks 100 days until the November election, one of the most 
 consequential days in our country’s history. For many of us in blue 
 states like California, the road to election day may seem fairly 
 straightforward. But activists and organizers are turning their attention 
 towards key battlegrounds that will play a crucial role in 
 November.\n\nJoin us for a screening of the new documentary "Birddog 
 Nation", and a conversation \nwith the Center for Popular Democracy and 
 Southern California-based activists from \nBend the Arc: Jewish Action, 
 SoCal, and LA Voice on what these next 100 days entail \nfor civic 
 engagement.  \n\nLearn how we can best mobilize and engage with political 
 campaigns and movements to ensure this 2020 election puts us on a path 
 towards meaningful change. \n\nCo-sponsored by Hang Out Do

 Popular Democracy\n\nTracey Corder\nCampaign Coordinator, Action Center on

 SoCal\n\nRev. Zachary Hoover \nExecutive Director, LA Voice\n\nIncluding 
 special messages from activist Ady Barkan and film director Sophie 
 Sartain\n\nABOUT: "Birddog Nation"\n\nThey marched in protests. They signed 
 petitions. They fretted on Facebook. But it wasn’t enough. Then a group 
 of women activated after the 2016 election met the leaders of the Birddog 
 Nation, who took them on a deep and transformative journey. "Birddog 
 Nation" is their story.\n\nFollow the fearless women who helped flip the 
 House in 2018 as they are schooled by activists from the Birddog Nation, 
 including Ady Barkan, a dying father with ALS who is fighting for democracy 
 with his last breath, and Ana Maria Archila, a sexual assault survivor who 
 confronts Senator Jeff Flake on an elevator during Brett Kavanaugh’s 
 confirmation hearings. \n\nThrough protest marches, grassroots organizing 
 and a tactic known as “birddogging,” the leaders of the Birddog Nation 
 take the women on a deep and transformative journey.\n
