Description

The idea that every citizen's vote counts is one deeply valued in America. But the right to vote is not automatic for all people. Long lines, unequal access, and misinformation often keep people of color from voting.

In this book, students in a futuristic classroom learn about topics like institutional racism, how people like Ida B. Wells and Stacey Abrams have fought for change, and how systems with racist roots can impact people of color today.

To the Polls is set in the future, during a time of true equality. In this future, a teacher takes his students back in time--to our past and present--to learn about times of prejudice and change.

This graphic novel contains discussion topics, thought-provoking questions, and actions students can take to be allies in the continuing fight for equality.
