When We Vote
Does voting really matter? It is how we make our choices evident in a way that can bring clarity and light. Done in exploration, collaboration and sound judgment with a posture of thinking about others, we can collectively create places of belonging for all.

#UNSEEN: Being Vulnerable Together
