We asked Rokey to join our Diversity Leadership Team for a lecture on the challenges and differences in the democratic voting process around the globe. Our group was completing enthralled by Rokey's insight and narratives concerning the obstacles that folks around the world encounter when trying to make their voices heard. His experiences were beneficial to spark discussion about our own country's challenges and the strife between individuals and groups with opposing philosophies. Rokey added a perspective and framework to our event that enriched the experience for all.

February 20, 2017Awesome Election Wanderer
Rokey was invited to speak to our statewide association for election officials in Tennessee and he did a fabulous job! His experiences in the election business both in the U.S. and abroad are impressive and his stories are very inspiring. Though people may take their privilege of voting for granted, he reminds you of the sacrifices that so many make for the opportunity of voting and the work ethic that election officials undertake to keep elections honest and fair. You will not be disappointed to invite him to be your next event speaker!
