Date of Fieldwork: October 1, 2018
Name of Organization: Lift Every Vote
Person (people) with whom I met and their job titles: Molly Harris, Brigette Olson
Type of Fieldwork: Direct Action
What I did:
We sent postcards telling people to vote for the 4th amendment in Florida.
What I learned:
I learned that in Florida there are 1.5 million people who can’t vote because they are ex-felons.
What I learned about Social Justice “work” and/or Civil and Human rights “work” from this fieldwork:
I learned that it takes a lot of work to bring change and that amendment 4 needs 60% of the votes to pass.
