Suppressed and Sabotaged: The Fight to Vote Screening

"A powerful film that puts a human face on the policy of voter suppression. Greenwald has provided a timely and important look at a critical issue confronting our democracy.The film is both an educational tool and rallying cry for the ACLU and other groups fighting policies and practices that threaten our democracy." -Anthony Romero, Head of ACLU 

Join ACS Wayne Law, Wayne Law Film Club, and Wayne Law's Voting Rights and Election Law Society as we screen "Suppressed and Sabotaged: The Fight to Vote," a 30-minute documentary film focusing on the swelling wave of efforts to disenfranchise voters across the U.S., with the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial race between Stacey Abrams and Brian Kemp providing a case study for understanding today’s restrictive measures. In 2023 alone, 150 bills were introduced to restrict voting access. The documentary includes the personal stories of folks in battleground states who represent those disproportionately affected by voter suppression: older adults, first-time, younger, and college-aged students, Black, Indigenous, Latine, people of color, and people with disabilities. It is a rallying call against the calculated, unconstitutional, and racist attacks intended to destroy democracy in the United States.
