πŸ—³οΈ 13 Days Until Election Day!

Today, the NCNW Queens County Section Social Justice Committee recognizes the history of the secret ballot.

During the late 1800s, states increasingly adopted government-printed ballots that allowed voters to make their selections privately.

This important reform helped protect voters from intimidation, bribery, and pressure while exercising their right to vote.

Today, the NCNW Queens County Section Social Justice Committee recognizes the Selma Voting Rights Campaign of 1965.

Civil rights activists marched in Selma, Alabama, to challenge discriminatory voting practices that prevented Black Americans from exercising their right to vote.
