What do demographic trends about the diversification of the U.S. population tell us about what our country will look like in 2030? And what do these data signal about the systems and structures we’ll need to ensure a representative, multiracial and multiethnic democracy 30 years from now? Join this important conversation to hear from demographic experts and movement leaders about the implications of demographic population trends for civic participation—including recently released 2020 Census data—as well as efforts to build power ahead of the next election, census, and redistricting cycles, and to create a democracy that works for all in the decades ahead.
