'Suppressed and Sabotaged: The Fight to Vote'

Brave New Films’ Suppressed and Sabotaged: The Fight to Vote is a film for every American concerned about voter suppression and election subversion ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

The 30-minute documentary focuses on the wave of efforts to disenfranchise voters across the U.S., with the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial race between Stacey Abrams and Brian Kemp providing a case study for understanding today’s restrictive measures.

Suppressed and Sabotaged includes the personal stories of those in battleground states who are disproportionately affected by voter suppression: older and younger adults, first-time voters, Black, Indigenous, Latine, people of color, and people with disabilities.

The film puts a spotlight on the ongoing threats to free and fair elections in the United States – and provides suggestions on how to get democracy back on track.
