DESCRIPTION:Join us in a discussion about how Indigenous communities are challenging 
 centuries of voter oppression.\n\nDate and time: Tue, May 17, 2022 @ 4:00 
 PM – 5:15 PM 
 PDT\n\nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-power-of-the-native-vote-tickets-333681830337\n\n\nAs 
 we enter primary elections, a pivotal voting bloc of people is mobilizing 
 to shape the future of our country. Join us in a discussion about how 
 Indigenous communities are challenging centuries of voter oppression – 
 and how to apply these lessons to achieve justice for all marginalized 
 people.\n\nNative communities face significant barriers to the ballot box 
 that are often overlooked in mainstream conversations about voting rights. 
 Despite a lack of resources and institutional support, Indigenous people 
 are getting out the vote and increasing Native voice both on and off 
 reservations across the country. \n\nHear from a panel of Indigenous 
 activists to learn how you can support voting access for Native people and 
 leverage their experiences into a collective fight for the ballot box for 
 all who have been disenfranchised from shaping public policy.\n\n\nABOUT: 
 Wellbeing Blueprint\n\nhttps://wellbeingblueprint.org/about/#forward\n\nThe 
 Wellbeing Blueprint took shape in 2020 when a group of changemakers came 
 together to turn a crisis into a turning point.\n\nFor generations, 
 marginalized communities responding to injustice had been sidelined, 
 under-resourced or ignored. Then COVID-19 and the murder of George Floyd 
 shook the nation to its core. A long-overdue reckoning began taking place 
 as more people became aware of the inequities and atrocities that 
 communities had been organizing around for decades.\n\nWe realized that now 
 is the closest we’ll get in our lifetime to meaningfully rethinking and 
 rebuilding our systems from the ground up. The Wellbeing Blueprint is our 
 community, our roadmap and our movement to do just that.\n\n
