Hi All,

"Approximately 100 million Americans don't vote—and as a result, our political democracy is weakened. Across the nation people are working hard to change this. Latino and African American communities in Lockhart, Texas are registering new voters, running for local office, and this year, organized their first first MLK day march. Texas Majority Minority documents the importance of organizing minority voting in order to win elections and to fight the growing political apartheid in Texas and throughout the U.S.
 
Texas Majority Minority is a vital component of Voting in America, <http://www.votinginamerica.org/>, a national collaboration of award-winning filmmakers to address the crucial issue of voter participation. Voting in America is scheduled for broadcast after the elections, but we are making Texas Majority Minority available NOW. DVD or VHS copies include English and Spanish versions, along with excerpts from a 2004 interview with Ed Wendler, the late civil rights activist. 
 
Those who can afford a suggested donation of $15-20 will help distribute free copies to grassroots organizations. To get the video please contact: Anne Lewis at 512-444-7933 or alewis615 at earthlink.net"
