Activist Afternoons October 20
Start: Sunday, October 20, 2019• 4:00 PM

Activist Afternoons is a way for all members of our community to gather and take action on the issues and elections we care about.
We meet weekly on Sundays at 4pm, at Workbar Central Square, 45 Prospect Street in Cambridge to continue our work in civic engagement and political advocacy.
Confirmed:
- Sister District MA-RI is calling Virginia voters for three candidates -- Larry Barnett, Hala Ayala, and John Bell -- to help Democrats flip the state's legislature blue this November.
- Our Revolution Cambridge will be doing local outreach to turn people out for the upcoming Cambridge municipal elections.
- Swing Left Greater Boston will be writing letters to likely but not-yet-registered Democratic voters in critical Presidential battleground states.
- Environmental Voter Project is calling and texting registered but inactive voters in key states including Virginia and Maine. Every one of these voters that votes in 2019 in a local or statewide election is then an active voter in 2020!
