Attention All Interns and Young Organizers!
The Democracy Action Project invites you to a reception to hear about its vision for young people and the voting rights movement. Learn how you can organize and educate for voting rights, electoral reform and renewed democracy on your campus and in your community during the upcoming election season.
The reception is Friday, July 18, from 5 to 7 p.m., at the Josephine Butler Center, 2437 15th St. NW, (four blocks from the Columbia Heights Metro). Come meet the young people who helped create Democracy Summer and say hello to Malia Lazu, who will be heading up Democracy Action Project efforts for 2004 and beyond. Food, drinks and good folks will be in attendance. Please RSVP to Malia at 202/234-9382, ext. 257, or send an e-mail.
