Vote with your Hands or Your Feet?
Thursday October 29, 2020, 3:45-5:00 PM
We often trace political participation to a place of residence. Historically, many peoples have had restricted opportunities to express their political views by voting in the places they live. This panel explores whether voting in place or exercising a freedom to move elsewhere is best for securing key political interests.
