Our Districts, Our Voice: An SCVA Lunch & Learn on Redistricting, Voting Rights, & Community Power

From Freedom Summer to today, the fight for voting rights has always been shaped by ordinary people organizing for change. And in TN, we’re once again on the front lines.

As early voting begins for the August 6 election, join the Shelby County Voter Alliance to explore what Tennessee's new congressional maps mean for our communities and how everyday people can build power for what's next.

Hear from organizers, historians, and community leaders as we connect the legacy of Freedom Summer and the voting rights movement to the challenges and opportunities facing us today. Whether you're new to these issues or already engaged, this Lunch & Learn is an opportunity to get informed, get connected, and join the movement. Free and open to the public. Registration required.

Panelists:

Amber Sherman, Lead TN Organizer, Black Voters Matter

Dr. Charles McKinney, Professor of History @ Rhodes College
