REMINDER: VOTE TOMORROW

Elections are an opportunity to make your voice heard and help shape the future of our communities.

The right to vote is deeply connected to our history, culture, and collective journey toward freedom. Generations before us organized, marched, and sacrificed to expand access to the ballot box. Tomorrow, we honor that legacy by showing up and making our voices heard.

Make a plan to vote, encourage your friends and family to participate, and show up for the issues that matter most.

Tuesday, June 23, 2026

Your vote. Your voice. Your community.

Happy Juneteenth from Open Buffalo! ✊🏾

Today, we honor the generations of Black leaders, organizers, and freedom fighters who paved the way for us to build a more just and equitable future.

As we celebrate, we are proud to relaunch Freedom Summer 2.0, a community initiative focused on civic engagement, leadership development, voter education, and community power.

Freedom is more than a moment in history. It is a responsibility we share. Make a plan to vote on June 23 and join us in continuing the work of building a stronger democracy for all.
