Team WI with Power to the Polls Volunteer Meeting

Join our Team Wisconsin volunteer meeting for folks interested in traveling with Common Power to doorknock for Chris Taylor in the April Spring Election.

This meeting is specifically for volunteers interested in doorknocking with our partners at Power to the Polls, a Black-led voter advocacy organization led by Mandela Barnes. Power to the Polls builds multiracial, working-class coalitions through high-impact canvassing and Souls to the Polls programs that turn out infrequent voters.

Bring your questions and come ready to dive into the details of our April Common Power trip- everything you need to know to get involved and get organized!

Celebrating A Champion: A Gathering in Honor of Ms. JoAnne Bland
Feb

Celebrating A Champion: A Gathering in Honor of Ms. JoAnne Bland

Please join us to celebrate Ms. Bland. We will hear her words, share photos, tell stories, laugh and probably cry, and then carry her strength with us.

Wednesday, Feb 25, 5 pm PT, on ZOOM

Ms. Joanne Bland, an American hero, a leader in Selma, AL in that town’s nation-leading fight for the right to vote by all Americans, and a Common Power Champion in every sense, passed away Feb 19 morning.

Ms. Bland, 72 years old, was a forever advocate for civil rights, voting, and racial justice. She was arrested 13 times by the time she was 11 for protesting for the right to vote. At that age, she and 600 other African Americans marched across the Edmund Pettus Bridge on March 7, 1965 and was teargassed by white Alabama police and citizens. That courageous march and the state’s violent attack became known as “Bloody Sunday,” and it catalyzed the passage of the Voting Rights Act that year.

Since the beginning of Common Power, Ms. Bland has held the position of “CP Champion.” She has taught, catalyzed, challenged, supported, and inspired our staff, our volunteers, our supporters, our partner organizations, and everyone who met her.

Team WI with WisDems Volunteer Meeting

This meeting is specifically for volunteers interested in doorknocking alongside our partners at the Wisconsin Democratic Party (WisDems), the state’s central infrastructure for electing Democrats up and down the ballot. WisDems organizes year-round, data-driven voter outreach, with a strong emphasis on door-knocking to drive turnout in urban centers and key swing districts.

Bring your questions and come ready to dive into the details of our April Common Power trip!

Institute for Common Power Educators for Democracy Teach-In
Feb

Institute for Common Power Educators for Democracy Teach-In

We are confronted today in America by an attack on truth in education. It is an attempt by politically motivated individuals, government offices, and politicians to halt the full teaching of American life by eradicating fully truthful aspects of our past, present, and potential futures. At their core, such attacks seek to erase the triumphs of African Americans, women, LGBTQ+ Americans, and others who have been vital in the struggle for civil rights and voting justice. The Institute for Common Power cannot and will not idly watch. To this end, we have created the Educators for Democracy speaker series to teach truth and encourage action that brings to fruition an inclusive democracy.

We will feature five educators from across the country each quarter who will deliver thirty minute talks on some aspect of American democracy.

Speakers:

Jeffery White, New York - "The Black Man's Burden: From Colonial Critique to Contemporary Crisis"

Erica Dodson, Ohio - "Using Art to Spark Discourse in Social Studies"

Kanika Batra, Texas - "Learning and Voting in the American South and South Africa, 1965-1975"

Cruz, Carmen - "A History Lesson on the Halftime Stage: How Bad Bunny Used His Platform to Educate America"

Luke Michener, Washington - "Black History - White Teacher: A Primer for White Folks Who Teach Black History"

Our February event will be in honor of the 100th Anniversary of Black History Month, and features educators discussing the teaching of Black history and identity.

We’ll introduce our team leads and share our official plans to mobilize and doorknock in the IL-09 US House race.

Common Power will be supporting Kat Abughazaleh in this race because she brings a new kind of grassroots energy and voice to the race, leveraging her large online following and progressive platform to mobilize younger and previously disengaged voters. She’s captured national attention by fearlessly taking on entrenched power structures and challenging the political establishment in her district.

Join us online to learn more about our upcoming travel, field plans, and the partners we’ll be organizing alongside in Illinois!
