In this Hopkins at Home discussion, Megan Ihnen, Peab '09 (MMUS) is joined by SNF Agora Visiting Fellow and #iVoted founder, Emily White, to discuss how her organization produces record-breaking events and works with entertainment venues to admit fans who show a selfie either from outside their polling place or at home with a blank and unmarked ballot. #iVoted events have featured Billie Eilish, Run the Jewels, Phish, Steph Curry, and more.
With a C-suite that is majority BIPOC and 100 percent women, and an overall team that is 92 percent BIPOC, women, non-binary, or LGBTQ+, #iVoted is revolutionizing voter turnout while mentoring the next generation of leaders. In this important election year, learn what strategies are in play to continue to engage diverse audiences, blend music and civic responsibility and make the act of voting a celebrated and communal experience.
