Community. Unity. Power. Join Us!
We’re excited to share details about can’t-miss Good Trouble Lives On events and programming happening July 17-20 in Champaign and Urbana. Please spread the word so even more people can learn about voting rights, fair elections, and how to get involved — all topics dear to activist and legislator the late John Lewis.
