In episode 19, the “Our Voice” podcast welcomes Cecile Scoon – President of the League of Women Voters of Florida (LWVFL). A Harvard and University of Virginia Law School graduate, Cecile Scoon is the first Black woman to serve as president of LWVFL. She is also a past president of the League of Women Voters of Bay County and chair of the Florida League’s efforts to restore rights, including passing Florida’s 2018 Amendment 4. President Scoon joins hosts Neil Volz and Desmond Meade to discuss one of the most debated topics related to voting in Florida right now, redistricting - the process of drawing electoral district boundaries. Our guest presents a compelling case for challenging the Governor’s redistricting map, which she believes reduces the voting power of minorities.
