Breaking bread
& casting ballots.
You aint gotta have the answers to come to the table.
Do politics confuse or frustrate you? Us too. Do you feel disheartened and apathetic about voting and getting involved because you’re not sure if it will even matter? Yep! Been there and sometimes we’re still there. Looking for a place to have slow, nuanced conversations about the issues that matter? Pull up a chair and grab a plate. We’re glad you’re here.
Eat. Chat. Act.
A Down Ballot Brunch has 3 parts. Eat (Don’t worry Friend we got some recipes for you.) Have a conversation using our DBB Chat guide, your own prompts or a mix of both. And Act. Do something together! It can be as simple as writing an elected official a note on a DBB post card, posting quotes from the convo on social media (with permission of course) or texting 3 people about their voting plan and what issues matter to them.
“If they don't give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair.”
—Shirley Chisholm
