SUMMARY:Knocking Doors for Shawn Harris - Runoff!
DESCRIPTION:On March 10\, Shawn Harris finished first in the special election for U.S. House\, but we are not done yet! The runoff is April 7\, with early voting March 30-April 2. Let’s send Shawn Harris to be our representative in Washington\, DC. Leadership Matters! \nJoin the Paulding County Democrats as we reach out to voters to tell them about the special election. We are contacting Democratic voters who need a reminder to show up for the runoff. \nPaulding Democrats will be knocking doors and delivering campaign flyers throughout the county. Door-to-door canvassing is the most effective way to get the word out about this election and to get voters to the polls. \nIf you haven’t canvassed before\, it’s fun! Get to know your neighbors and remind them how important their vote is. \nPlease wear comfortable walking shoes. Dress for the weather and bring a water bottle. Wear your Shawn Harris t-shirt\, or we will give you one. \nWe will meet in the parking lot behind McDonald’s and carpool to the canvassing location.

SUMMARY:Banned Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join the Paulding County Democrats for the monthly meeting of our Banned Book Club. We have expanded the definition of our club to include political books. Let’s explore the stories challenged and understand the importance of freedom of expression.  Sign up here:  https://www.mobilize.us/mobilize/event/911831/. \nIn March\, we are reading “Giving Up Is Unforgivable\,” by Joyce Vance. \n“We’re in this together.” \nFor the past several years\, Joyce Vance has signed off posts on her chart-topping Substack\, “Civil Discourse”\, with these four words. In that time\, she has guided readers through a continued erosion of democratic norms\, the unprecedented felony conviction of an ex-president\, and the constitutionally calamitous beginning to the second Trump administration. Here\, Vance offers a blueprint for avoiding burnout and despair\, and for strengthening our democratic muscle. \n“Giving Up Is Unforgivable” is a clarion call to action\, putting our current crisis in historical context and sketching out a vision for where we go next. Vance’s message is hopeful at its heart\, even as it acknowledges the daunting challenges that lie ahead. She is the constitutional law professor you never knew you needed\, explaining the legal context and the political history— and why the rule of the law still matters. At the same time\, she empowers the reader to do something\, both as individuals and collectively. \nConsider this the birth of a countermovement to Project 2025\, a rallying cry for citizen engagement to combat the second Trump administration and save American democracy. \nPlease purchase and read the book ahead of time. \nCoffee and soft drinks will be provided. Please bring a snack to share. \nThe meeting is at a private residence off Dabbs Bridge Road in Dallas. The address will be provided upon registration. \nLet’s stand together for the freedom to read and share ideas!

SUMMARY:Banned Book Club\, "The Bluest Eye"
DESCRIPTION:Event is hosted at a private residence. Please register on Mobilize (https://mobilize.us/s/URVld1) for address.\nJoin the Paulding County Democrats for the monthly meeting of our Banned Book Club. We have expanded the definition of our club to include political books. Let’s explore the stories challenged and understand the importance of freedom of expression. \nOur January book selection is “The Bluest Eye” by Toni Morrison. \nIn Morrison’s acclaimed first novel\, Pecola Breedlove—an 11-year-old Black girl in an America whose love for its blond\, blue-eyed children can devastate all others—prays for her eyes to turn blue: so that she will be beautiful\, so that people will look at her\, so that her world will be different. This is the story of the nightmare at the heart of her yearning\, and the tragedy of its fulfillment. \nSince its publication\, the book has consistently landed on the American Library Association’s list of most challenged books. Reasons cited have included\, “sexually explicit material\,” “lots of graphic descriptions and lots of disturbing language\,” and “an underlying socialist-communist agenda.” \nThe Bluest Eye remains one of Toni Morrison’s most powerful\, unforgettable novels—and a significant work of American fiction. \nPlease\, read the book before the meeting. \nCoffee and soft drinks will be provided. Please bring a snack to share. \nLet’s stand together for the freedom to read and share ideas!

SUMMARY:Dallas Christmas Parade
DESCRIPTION:Come ride the Paulding Democrats float in the Dallas Christmas Parade! We play great music\, bring great snacks\, and have a great time showing Paulding County that DEMOCRATS LIVE HERE. If we have enough folks willing to walk the route\, we can hand out candy to all the spectators. Kids are welcome to ride the float. \nOur float theme will be How the Grinch Stole Christmas. (Read into that what you wish.) Dress for the weather. Please wear either a Grinch sweatshirt or blue or white top (sweatshirts\, jackets) if possible. To order a Paulding Democrats sweatshirt\, visit https://secure.actblue.com/donate/pcdcmerch and place your order by November 23 to receive at the parade. \nThe roads around the parade route are closed that morning. If you don’t want to walk a long way to get to us\, please meet at 9:30 a.m. at the Watson Government Complex\, 280 Constitution Boulevard in Dallas. Use the parking lot to the west of the courthouse building\, near Justice Center Drive. You can ride the float to our lineup location and help put the final touches on our float. \nIn case you can’t meet at Watson\, we will let you know where to find our float as soon as we get our line-up information. In past years\, we have lined up near 519 Hardee Street. You may be able to park at the Paulding Community Center\, 210 Paulding Lane\, and then cross the pedestrian bridge to get to us. You will need to be at the float absolutely no later than 10:45 a.m. \nThe parade steps off at 11 a.m. and lasts about an hour. \nWe will work our way back to Watson after the parade to return folks to their cars.

SUMMARY:Banned Book Club\, ‘Allow Me to Retort’
DESCRIPTION:RSVP on Mobilize for address: https://mobilize.us/s/NTKG0A \nJoin the Paulding County Democrats for the monthly meeting of our Banned Book Club. We have expanded the definition of our club to include political books. Let’s explore the stories challenged and understand the importance of freedom of expression. \nOur November book selection is “Allow Me to Retort: A Black Guy’s Guide to the Constitution” by Elie Mystal. Allow Me to Retort is an easily digestible argument about what rights we have\, what rights Republicans are trying to take away\, and how to stop them. Mystal explains how to protect the rights of women and people of color instead of cowering to the absolutism of gun owners and bigots. He explains the legal way to stop everything from police brutality to political gerrymandering\, just by changing a few judges and justices. He strips out all of the fancy jargon conservatives like to hide behind\, and lays bare the truth of their project to keep America forever tethered to its slaveholding past. \nMystal brings his trademark humor\, expertise\, and rhetorical flair to explain concepts like substantive due process and the right for the LGBTQ community to buy a cake\, and to arm readers with the knowledge to defend themselves against conservatives who want everybody to live under the yoke of eighteenth-century white men. The same tactics Mystal uses to defend the idea of a fair and equal society on MSNBC and CNN are in this book\, for anybody who wants to deploy them on social media. \nYou don’t need to be a legal scholar to understand your own rights. You don’t need to accept the “whites only” theory of equality pushed by conservative judges. You can read this book to understand that the Constitution is trash\, but doesn’t have to be.

SUMMARY:Georgia Public Service Commission 2025 Election
DESCRIPTION:It’s finally here: after years of delays\, legal challenges\, and rescheduled dates\, Georgians will vote for two statewide Public Service Commission (PSC) seats on November 4. These elections matter more than most people realize — the PSC helps decide how much you pay for electricity and natural gas\, how Georgia invests in renewable energy\, and how utility companies are held accountable. \nThe PSC may not make headlines like presidential races\, but their decisions impact your monthly bills\, broadband access\, and clean energy investments. \nThis election has real consequences — especially as energy costs rise and climate change demands smarter policy. This is your chance to make sure those decisions are made by people who represent your values! \n🗳️ Make a plan to vote. Bring a friend. Let’s show up and shape Georgia’s future!
