Join us — and our partners Live Nation Women and Teen Vogue — on Monday, September 19 for critical conversations about the 2022 midterm elections.

Editor-at-Large Errin Haines will interview Democratic nominee for governor of Georgia, Stacey Abrams, who has become a leading advocate for voting rights on the national stage. We’ll also bust myths around monolithic voting blocs and explore how recent legislation — like anti-LGBTQ+ bills and rollbacks on reproductive rights across the country — has pushed people on the margins to defend their personhood.
