I have a show about a 13-ft tall Black man who lives in Oakland. It’s called I’m A Virgo. Jharrel Jerome is playing the lead. I’m doing this w Michael Ellenberg’s Media Res. We haven’t decided on the network/streamer. It’ll be dark, absurd, hilarious, and important.

#RankedChoiceVoting is coming to another Northern California town near you ❤️ #morevoice
Last night the city of Albany, CA became the *second* city in California whose voters will get to vote on #RankedChoiceVoting this November 2020: ballot-access.org/2020/06/16… My understanding is that Albany's measure will be multi-member (proportional) RCV (aka STV), which is great!

People on parole (who are disproportionately Black, Brown, and low-income) should be able to vote. Yet in California, they can't. ACA6 would help change that—if it passes the State Senate. More here ⬇️ ellabakercenter.org/ACA6Aria…
