My boyfriend is first generation
American Chines, an “ABC.” His family
was unable to vote or even own property until the Civil Rights Act passed LBJ
in the sixties. He tells his children to “make it count” and passionately
follows local, national and even international events and politics. Get
educated about the governance of your own neighborhood in addition to the
national political landscape. Exercise your right to vote. Voting is a sacred
right that is one of the most important parts of our political system, going
back for centuries in our history. Be informed about what is going on in your
country, know what ideas you support and are against, and vote on each Election
Day to speak for the public—you will be heard.
