DESCRIPTION: Join the ACS Michigan Chapter and the ACS University of Detroit Mercy School of Law Student Chapter for a screening of Suppressed: The Fight to Vote, followed by a discussion with Aghogho Edevbie on voting rights in Michigan.\n\nSuppressed weaves together personal stories from voters across the state of Georgia to paint an undeniable picture of voter suppression in the 2018 midterm election where Stacey Abrams fought to become the first Black female governor in the U.S. The issues Georgians faced included polling place closures, voter purges, missing absentee ballots, extreme wait times and a host of voter ID issues – all of which disproportionately prevented many students and people of color from casting their ballots. In a race that was ultimately decided by 54,723 votes, the film exposes that the basic constitutional right to vote continues to be under siege in America.\n\nFeaturing:\n\nAghogho Edevbie, Michigan State Director, All Voting is Local; Member, ACS Michigan Chapter Board of Directors\n \nAs the nation's leading progressive legal organization, ACS is committed to ensuring that all aspects of our events are accessible and enjoyable for all.
