La Mega Clase
La Mega Clase, a creative initiative co- led by QLatinx and the Center for Artistic Activism, in support of organizations in Florida working to protect the freedom to vote with creativity and innovation. In this training leaders from Florida learn the fundamentals of artistic activism and how to apply them to pro-voter work. Juntos they collaborate with members of other pro- voting organizations to develop creative campaigns in support of Florida voters. They prototype their campaigns and receive feedback, guidance, and support from QLatinx, C4AA, and fellow participants, and our participants leave with new, wildly creative, and highly strategic ways to achieve your organization’s pro-voter goals.
Voting belong to all of us!
When it comes to our elections, we want a secure process, a process we can trust. As LGBTQ+ individuals, it is our duty to fight for the safety of our community. Whether we are trans, queer, gay or ally. But sadly these days, he has recently faced barriers from powerful individuals to intimidate our voices with voter suppression bills. Now is the time to call them! Advocate for a safer electoral process to ensure that the entire LGBTQAI+ community understands that our democratic voting process is safe, accessible, culturally competent and it belongs to all of us.
