Hi guys, it's Cuquis, and I wanted to say
thank you to everyone who applied
for the Rooted in Rights Storytellers Series.
We had a lot of topics that were covered,
and it was really hard to choose, but
the Rooted in Rights team and I have finally
narrowed it down to our top five finalists.
Now, it is up to you, the public, to vote on
who our next three Storytellers are going to be.
So without further ado, meet our top five finalists.
So my topic is talking about emergency exit,
how we can come up with a solution
on bringing awareness to our community
and people in power.
Hi, my name is Micah Peace, and the topic that
I would like to address in the Rooted in Rights video
is the trauma that is delayed or misdiagnosis
can cause autistic people.

Hi my name is Wilbert Johnson.
And I am passionate about people with disability
having an equal opportunity to work.
My name is Ashanti, I'm from Louisiana.
And the topic I want to discuss is psychological disability
in the African American community.
Now you've had a chance to meet our finalists,
go to RootedinRights.org/Storytellers,
watch all five submission videos,
and vote on who you want to be
one of next three Storytellers.
The top three people with the most votes
will have their idea produced as Storyteller videos.
The deadline to vote is May 2nd,
by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time.
Don't forget: to cast your vote,
go to RootedinRights.org/Storytellers.
Bye!
