If you missed the Save Your Vote broadcast, which featured an all star cast and was aired on Free Speech TV, you can view it on demand on Act.tv’s YouTube channel.
The two hour TV special was hosted by political analyst Nomiki Konst (The Young Turks). Vigilantes Inc. filmmaker Greg Palast was joined by special guests Thom Hartmann (Host, The Thom Hartmann Program), Gerald Griggs (President, Georgia NAACP), LaTosha Brown (Co-Founder, Black Voters Matter), Mondale Robinson (Mayor, Enfield, NC & Founder, Black Male Voter Project), Max Carver (Actor, The Leftovers), and Jay Ponti (Author, Be The Revolution & Director, Voter Justice). In addition, Rosario Dawson (Actress, Ahsoka and Co-Founder, Voto Latino), Dash Mihok (Actor, Ray Donovan), and Martin Sheen (Executive Producer, Vigilantes Inc. & Actor, The West Wing) all shared messages encouraging viewers to watch Vigilantes Inc. before Election Day.
We’ve just made our award-winning documentary, Vigilantes Inc., available on YouTube so as many people as possible can see it BEFORE Election Day. And though it’s FREE, we very much hope you’ll support our work by making a donation.
Help us warn America about the vigilante vote challenges. We are raising funds for free community showings of our documentary and an education campaign in battleground states — the prime targets of the vigilantes.
Watch it, then share it — help us warn America!
