Cardinal & Pine spoke with Gregory Singleton, a resident from Rocky Mount located in Nash County—the NC bellwether for statewide elections.
Singleton, a formerly incarcerated voter, shared how his experience shaped his relationship with voting and why many justice-involved people still don’t realize they’re eligible to cast a ballot after completing their sentences.
He told us he’s scheduled to speak on Feb. 14 with the Repairers of the Breach, a North Carolina-based civil rights group, as part of the “This is Our Selma: Love Forward Together” mobilization tour. For more on the story, tap here.
