We spoke with three extraordinary women who played a part in January’s historic runoff election in Georgia.

You know about Stacey Abrams, of course, but so many people worked to make sure people’s voices were heard and represented in the past election. And they’ve been working for years and continue to work on (because, sadly, voter suppression is real and rampant).

We spoke with Tamieka Atkins (the Executive Director of Pro Georgia), Nse Ufot (the CEO of the New Georgia Project), and Rebecca DeHart (the CEO of Fair Count) about the New American Majority, voter suppression, meeting people where they are (and not just geographically—mentally and emotionally, too), being a better white accomplice, and so, so much more. We want to highlight that by making your home more equitable, you in turn make the world more equitable.
