OAKLAND, Calif. - Marylandian -- In an effort to galvanize Oakland and San Francisco Bay Area voters, Jennifer Johns and The F.U.N. Manifesto have announced a new partnership with RyanNicole and The HAVEN Project for a special edition of CIVICS 101.

In 2018, Jennifer Johns, Bay Area musician, activist, and founder of The F.U.N. Manifesto, created a short video series called Civics 101, in an effort to demystify the voting process for historically oppressed communities.  "I believe that more people are not engaged civically because we are often un/misinformed about the process and don't believe that our votes matter.  Civics 101 seeks to empower voters with the education and confidence they need to cast their votes and be loud about what their communities deserve," says Johns.
