In this ever-important election year, we’re excited to launch a major new bilingual campaign to mobilize young voters of color across the South: The South’s Got Now | Decidimos. Together with state and local partners across five states – Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana and Mississippi – we’ll be showing the power that young Black and Brown people have to change history and our communities. Read more about this campaign in our new blog. Stay tuned for more: https://lnkd.in/gqemijZD

About us
The SPLC is a catalyst for racial justice in the South and beyond, working in partnership with communities to dismantle white supremacy, strengthen intersectional movements, and advance the human rights of all people. We focus our legal, advocacy, and public education efforts on four major areas representing some of the most significant challenges facing the South and beyond: protecting voting rights and civic engagement; eradicating poverty in our Southern communities; dismantling white nationalism and protecting democracy; and decriminalizing and decarcerating Black and Brown people.
