Empower Your Voice and Wallet: Participate in Dual Voting for Justice and Equality

Articulated Insight – “News, Race and Culture in the Information Age”

In the wake of the most recent election, it’s clear that our voices matter. But voting is only one part of the equation. History teaches us that change comes when people join forces, using both political and economic influence. Think of the colonists who boycotted British goods, or the Civil Rights leaders who used economic resistance to demand justice. These movements didn’t just rely on voting; they relied on the power of people coming together, strategically spending (or withholding) their money to create a world that reflected their values.

This is dual voting. Voting in every election is critical, but imagine the impact of aligning your spending with your values. Imagine what could happen if, instead of putting money into corporations that profit off the status quo, we redirected our $7 trillion in collective spending toward businesses that believe in social and economic justice. Think about that for a second—$7 trillion. That’s the power we’re sitting on, and if we choose to use it, there’s no telling what we could accomplish.

The Tools to Make It Happen

That’s why we created tools like the Conscious Spending Ticker and the Voter Wallet as part of the Our Money United campaign. These aren’t just tools; they’re a way for us to wield our collective power like never before.

1. Conscious Spending Ticker: This ticker tracks every dollar spent with businesses that stand for social and economic justice, showing us in real-time the power of our spending. It’s a beacon that displays our shared commitment, permanently demonstrating that we—the people—are fueling the economy, and we’re choosing where that power goes.

2. Voter Wallet: The Voter Wallet is about putting power into the hands of everyday consumers. It’s a tool that helps you align your spending with your values, finding and supporting businesses that make a positive impact. This isn’t just about rewarding companies that “do no harm”—it’s about actively supporting businesses that do good, that contribute to the kind of society we want to live in.

With these tools, we’re organizing in a way that previous generations could only dream about. We’re making every dollar a vote for justice, equality, and opportunity. We’re building something bigger than any one person or one company. We’re building a movement.

Why Dual Voting Matters More Than Ever

The stakes today are higher than ever. We live in a world where corporations shape policies that impact our lives, often without regard for our well-being. But remember, there are more of us than there are of them. And when we unite around a shared agenda, we are unstoppable. We have the numbers, and we have the tools. What we need now is the will.

Dual voting—voting with our ballots and our dollars—gives us a way to hold corporations accountable, to show them that our money will only go to businesses that align with our values. This isn’t just about spending. It’s about power. And if we leave that power unused, we’re letting others decide our future for us.

A Call to Action: It’s Time to Organize

So here’s my call to you. Let’s stop sitting on this power. Let’s stop leaving our future in the hands of a few who only seek profit. Let’s vote twice. Let’s vote in every election, and then let’s vote every day, with every dollar we spend. Let’s make sure that our money supports businesses that want what we want: a society where justice and opportunity are for everyone.

We’re at a moment where we can either complain about the state of things or use the power we have to change it. The choice is ours. Are we going to sit back and let corporations decide our future? Or are we going to take control of our destiny, together, as a force they can’t ignore?

I’m inviting you to join the Our Money United campaign, to use the Conscious Spending Ticker and the Voter Wallet, and to become part of a movement that’s about more than spending—it’s about building the future we want. There’s no more time to waste. The journey to real change begins now, and it begins with us. Let’s vote twice, and let’s show the world what happens when the people take control of their own power.
