SUMMARY:The Safe and Fair Election Pledge
DESCRIPTION:A large majority of Americans want a healthier democracy\, more collaborative governance\, and elections that are both secure and widely accessible. But we often feel powerless to hold our elected officials accountable when it comes to defending our democracy and assuring safe and fair elections. But we CAN make a difference. Today\, view the Team Democracy video; and learn about (and sign) the Safe and Fair Election Pledge. Then ask your elected representatives and candidates to sign it too. Let them know that earning your support at the polls depends on their commitment to support the kind of enduring\, healthy\, resilient\, inclusive democracy that has guaranteed Americans’ liberties and freedoms for the last two and a half centuries.

SUMMARY:No-No Boy
DESCRIPTION:No-No Boy tells the story of Ichiro Yamada\, a fictional version of the real-life “no-no boys.” Yamada answered “no” twice in a compulsory government questionnaire as to whether he would serve in the armed forces and swear loyalty to the United States. Unwilling to pledge himself to the country that interned him and his family\, Ichiro earns two years in prison and the hostility of his family and community when he returns home to Seattle. As Ozeki writes\, Ichiro’s “obsessive\, tormented” voice subverts Japanese postwar “model-minority” stereotypes\, showing a fractured community and one man’s “threnody of guilt\, rage\, and blame as he tries to negotiate his reentry into a shattered world.”
