Equal Democracy Project

We are the Equal Democracy Project at @Harvard_Law, a group of students fighting to dismantle the political barriers to our currently unequal democracy.

Great joining @EqualDemocracy to talk about @dbbc_ma and the African-American Coalition Committee, our partners based in MCI-Norfolk who have been leading the democracy fight from behind the wall in Massachusetts. #mapoli

We filed our first case today! Congrats to @AnyaMarino5 @tleeeeee @OmeedAlerasool and @MeredithManda on stepping up to hold Governor DeSantis accountable for holding elections - the voters have a right to representation in the State House! https://t.co/bCg2iR6roM

My take on Brnovich:

"To return to Alito’s metaphor, this is what a judicial pirate ship looks like. It flies textualist colors while plundering one of the key statutory achievements of American democracy."

The @Harvard community has spoken: we need Democracy Day. Check out our op-ed in @thecrimson by Mark Haidar! https://t.co/EBRnFY2cJd

"President Bacow, we call on you to institutionalize Democracy Day in 2022 and beyond. For one day of the academic calendar, Harvard should commit itself to taking the civic lessons taught inside its classrooms and applying them towards civic action to benefit the community."

"President Bacow faces a critical choice . . . . While other institutions have designated Election Day a university holiday, none have committed themselves to civic engagement in the way that Democracy Day asks of Harvard."
