GDW EVENT ALERTS - PART I

By Gloria Dulan-Wilson



Hello All:

September fairly whizzed by - moving in and out like a locomotive - you hardly had time to catch your breath - there was one event after another - nonstop -  And October is doing pretty much the same thing.  We are literally 30 days from November 8 and counting.  A lot to do and so little time - so we have to be on top of it to make sure we make it through victoriously!! 

So, while our social calendar and activities are important - we've got some pressing matters that everyone should be aware of and a part of - we don't need anyone to drop the ball at this point.  Way too crucial to ignore.

For that reason, I'm dividing my GDW EVENT ALERTS INTO THREE PARTS - there's just too much to encompass in cone publication - although in the past I've actually tried to do so.




NEW YORK

OCTOBER 6, 2016

We are excited to join the #BlackWomenVote campaign, a nonpartisan project by Higher Heights, this Thursday, October 6th from 7:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. EDT for a National Telephone Town Hall.
We invite you to join in on this important and timely conversation, as we gather thousands of Black women from across the country to discuss mobilizing our communities to vote this November.
October 6th would have been civil rights activist, Fannie Lou Hamer’s 99th Birthday.  Fannie was an amazing woman that fought to ensure that we had a voice in the political process. 
As we pause to celebrate her life and legacy, we will also discuss strategies to ensure that our voices, votes and leadership matter in this election and beyond.
To participate on the call, you MUST RSVP at   http://bit.ly/bwvtownhall.   You will receive a call on Thursday at 7:30 pm. EDT to the telephone number you included in your RSVP.
Many are questioning if we can activate Black women voters this election, turn them out to the polls and motivate them to organize their communities.  The answer is yes!
I think you would agree that when you fire up a Black woman she does not go to the polls alone, she brings her house, her block, her church, her sorority and her water cooler.  Join in and learn more on how to activate your network and our community in the #BlackWomenVote, a 30 day campaign to mobilize thousands of Black women to the polls. 
If you need more information or have questions please contact Higher Heights at BWV@HigherHeightsforAmerica.org or reply to this email to reach National Action Network.

Let's crush Trump in PA


It's possible the entire presidential election could come down not just to one state, but one city.

The Los Angeles Times just called Philadelphia "the most important target for Hillary Clinton in what ranks now as her most important state."1

What's our best shot at stopping Trump and his campaign of hate? Making sure there's a big voter turnout in the City of Brotherly Love.

WFP activists are taking a bus trip from NYC to Philadelphia this Saturday, October 8th to knock on doors for Hillary Clinton in a state that's being called her "firewall" against Trump. Can you join us?
Join our bus to PA to defeat Trump!
Register here to save your seat on the WFP bus from NYC to Philadelphia this Saturday, October 8th.

Can't make it? Chip in $3 to fund our efforts to defeat Trump and elect progressive candidates up and down the ballot.
If you follow the polls, you know this race is still unnervingly close. The latest handful of polls in Pennsylvania show anything from a one-point lead for Trump to a single-digit lead for Hillary.2

But watching the polls doesn't turn out voters. And right now, the one thing we can do to make sure we crush Trump's campaign of hate is to turn out as many voters as possible in swing states like Pennsylvania.
The bus will be departing Saturday morning from downtown Manhattan at 9:30am and returning before 7:30pm. Your seat on the bus is free, but space is limited. If you want to join us on the bus, please register now:

Register here to join us on the bus and an organizer will be in touch soon with more details.

Or if you can't make it, chip in $3 to fund our efforts to defeat Trump and elect progressive candidates up and down the ballot on Election Day.
Thanks,
Charles Monaco

PHILADELPHIA

OCTOBER 6, 2016
Are you around Thursday in Philadelphia? We would love for you to join us to help elect Hillary and other Democrats!

I know that this team has always stepped up when we needed you to -- and helped to knock on doors, make phone calls, and even register people to vote. But as Election Day gets closer, we need you more than ever.

The stakes are too high -- if we don’t do our part, Donald Trump will win. But every time you step up, Gloria, we get one step closer to making sure Hillary is our next president. That is why it’s so important that you join us on Thursday.

You have a chance to make a difference in this election. Can we count on you to help Hillary and Democrats win?

Join us on Thursday -- and let’s get to work:

Thanks,

Corey Dukes
Pennsylvania State Director
Hillary for America
