Young Black Voter
Posted by: Dave Newton on June 28, 2009 at 08:00pm
The short film Young Black Voter traces the personal journey of aspiring Kentucky filmmaker Lavel White from a self-described disengaged youth—who occasionally committed petty crimes—to a hopeful young adult, actively involved in the political process and community issues.
This is a production of KET and Making Connections Louisville, made possible with support from the ITVS Vote Democracy! public television station grant initiative.
Many KFTC members met Lavel for the first time this past weekend at the PUSHBACK Convening and saw his film. He's a new KFTC member now, and is especially interested in getting more involved in our campaign to restore voting rights to former felons who have served their debt to society.
