"We can already see all the different challenges that we're facing... If you're a person of colour and you're in line, for potentially hours on end, and during that time someone tries to intimidate you to tell you that you should get out of line because you might be under surveillance — or any number of intimidation tactics that are so scary. And then you think, 'You know, it's not worth it.' You decide to step out of line and relinquish your right to vote. That's bad enough, but then there's a ripple effect because whoever is in the back of the line says, 'Whatever they did to them... I don't want that to happen to me.' That, I think, is so frightening. But I wonder how we circumvent that and how we get people to feel empowered."
"Even today, we are watching so many women in different communities who are marginalized, still struggling to see that right [to vote] come to fruition... It's just simply not okay. And when we look at attempts at voter suppression, and what that's doing, it's all the more reason we need each of you to be out there supporting each other, to understand that this fight is worth fighting, and we all have to be out there mobilizing to have our voices heard."
