Lin-Manuel Miranda, Michelle Obama, and 14 Other Change-Makers Share Advice They'd Give First-Time Voters

"The history of voting in this country is long and vast and really, really messed up. There's a ton of discrimination and voter suppression that is currently still happening. Voting is a very, very important thing, but it is not the only thing that you should be doing to try to create change. I would encourage a first-time voter to not stop at voting. I would encourage them to discover and explore what it means to be politically active and what it means to create change in their world and in their life."
