About this title

Synopsis

Kwame is excited to tell his family who he voted for and why in his school student government election.

To his surprise, his family is also getting ready to be part of Election Day. He spends a celebratory afternoon with his family eating and talking about why voting is important before all going together to the polling place. Kwame learns that voting is communication between the government and the people. He understands that because of voting, elected officials can be held accountable, and people can communicate their opinions about how to solve community problems.
