In this short video, Dr. Freeman Hrabowski recounts a moving family memory about his grandmother's struggle to overcome unfair obstacles designed to stop her from voting.

Let's not forget the privilege our ancestors earned for us, nor the duty they left for us. Let's not squander their sacrifices; let's honor them. Let this story not only stir you emotionally, but also stir you to act.


As family historians, we may look back, but we are not going back.


It's time to vote.
