newsletter nov 15, 2020
While the election may be behind us, the emotional rollercoaster ride continues in our deeply, deeply divided nation. While the election of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris may represent a temporary pause in digging deeper into this hole we’re in, there’s still so much to do to get out of it. We’re here for it, and we’re counting you to be as well. We’re back at it with phone banks and postcarding to help turn out voters in Georgia, and volunteer opportunities here in Brooklyn, and we hope you’ll join us.
