The Masculinity Project: Shon's Journey 10mins
Produced by Shon McGoy & EVC’s Youth-Organizers Television (YO_TV)
Shon can’t decide if he should vote, even in this historic election, so he decides to document his process of making up his mind. What does his vote mean? Should one vote even when there is fear your voice will be discounted? These are all questions Shon investigates, seeking advice from professionals in the political field, friends, and even his parents. How does Shon’s journey reflect your own in this history-making election cycle?
