The Mainstream Coalition is proud to be a part of Women's Equality Week 2020!
Policy issues and legislation affect us all but they disproportionately impact communities that have been routinely undermined in the political process including women, Persons of Color, and LGBTQ+ individuals.
Watch this re-broadcast of a timely discussion on voting rights and voter suppression as we head into the very important 2020 General Election. For this conversation Mainstream's Executive Director Michael Poppa is joined by Lannaia McKenzie (President/Co-Founder, Advocacy and Awareness Group of Johnson County), Nigel Morten (Kansas State Organizer, URGE), and Melissa Stiehler (Citizen Participation Field Organizer, ACLU of Kansas).
Mainstream Coalition is dedicated to uplifting communities, including diversity in our conversations, and working together for lasting positive change in Kansas.
