Erica Smith on Civil Rights

 

 


We don't have an agenda for addressing minority concerns

I am a curriculum and instructional specialist at Haliwa-Saponi Tribal School. To see us not have a message for tribal communities was deeply disturbing. In North Carolina, our state motto is Esse quam videri, to be rather than to seem, and it just seems we are not meeting that mandate. We are failing to connect with communities of color and indigenous people. We have to accept we do not have an agenda that addresses the concerns of minority communities.

Universal, automatic voter registration

I support reinstatement of Section V of the 1965 Civil Rights Act, universal and automatic voter registration, Election Day Holiday and protection of our electoral process from interference from foreign governments.

I support enshrining Equal Rights for Women in our United States Constitution.
