No matter what we look like or where we come from, when it comes to having a say over who represents us, most of us want similar things: a transparent process we can trust, where communities remain whole and where voters have an equal voice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enter Redistricting Loter\u00eda<\/strong>. A collaboration between the leading fair districting groups in Wisconsin, Redistricting Loter\u00eda is a twist on a 500-year-old game played in households across Latin America. The classic loter\u00eda was remastered to get Wisconsinites involved in the redistricting process in a fun, culturally-inclusive way. Redistricting Loter\u00eda engaged Wisconsin’s BIPOC communities in particular, as they are consistently shut out of the redistricting process and are most negatively impacted by unfair maps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Loter\u00eda is a cultural resource for la raza<\/em>, or “the people.” It’s free and available to any organization, educator, family or individual. People as young as 10 years old can play, and it’s an easy, accessible way for beginners and experts to engage in gerrymandering reform. A tool kit with instructions, a lesson plan, and a slide-deck can be made available as well. Contact project lead iuscely flores<\/a> for more information!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Unstoppable Voters Project Through and Through<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Redistricting Loter\u00eda was developed during our Unstoppable Voters training for fair map leaders<\/strong> held in Fall 2021. Learn more about Unstoppable Voters trainings and organizational support here<\/a>, and read more about our dynamic upcoming trainings here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recent Events<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Loter\u00eda has been played in three public events since the start of 2022, reaching 100 people and counting! It’s inspired direct actions including letter writing to local newspapers and participation in fair maps actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unstoppable Voters Projects Fight Anti-Voter Efforts with Creativity, Joy, Humor, and Hope<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We believe that every voter\u2019s voice must be heard.<\/strong>\u00a0The U.S. freedom to vote is under extraordinary attack\u2013at the state level, the federal level, and due to widespread apathy, division, and distrust\u2013but\u00a0we have hope<\/strong>. We believe we can become a country where people feel invested in and excited about civic life. We believe legislation can be passed to support that civic life and protect the freedom to vote. And\u00a0we know that we need to use the powers of art and culture to make this promise of democracy real for us all.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n
