[VIRTUAL EVENT] Exploring Together: Voting Styles and Impacts Online

Voting is a civic duty that impacts the lives of every American in some way or another. Salem Public Library invites you to join us as we provide an opportunity for community members to do the important work of exploring the voting process in America. In this series of community conversations, staff will act as facilitators and work to establish a respectful and supportive space for everyone to contribute their thoughts, share questions, and explore the ideas from the readings and videos.
