2nd Tuesday
Knock Down the House
Join us for popcorn and a free screening of the documentary,
Knock Down the House. Hear the stories behind four women's groundbreaking campaigns for Congress in 2018:
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Amy Vilela of Nevada,
Cori Bush of Missouri, and Paula Jean Swearengin of West Virginia.
Vilela, Bush and Swearengin lost in the primary, but Ocasio-Cortez went on to win election to the US House of Representatives.
The film is sure to energize us to recruit female candidates in 2020!

Poll Worker / Voting Rights Protector
Bring your lunch and join us to learn how to be on the frontlines of protecting voting rights! Become a precinct judge or poll observer – we’ll tell you how. There will be municipal elections in the towns of Forsyth County this November, so this would be a good year to be trained to be a precinct judge.
