Скачать или смотреть David Perez Hurley & Sylvia Lagos | Unprecedented: Stories from the 2024 DNC

David Perez Hurley and Sylvia Lagos are delegates from Dallas, Texas to the 2024 Democratic National Convention.

“This is my first DNC. We knew it, coming in, it was going to be Joe Biden,” said David. “But now that Kamala is coming in and she'll be, hopefully, we pray that she will be our 47th president of the United States. So that energizes all of us. Gives me goosebumps just even thinking about it.”

“My outlook on all this is we're not going back,” said Sylvia. “The train is moving and we're hopping on and we're moving forward. And this is our time. And it's our time to build on what has, you know, happened before. So it's time to move forward, get people to the polls. Everyone has a duty, a civic duty to go to the polls and vote because someone died and someone fought for your right to vote. Don't take it for granted.”

Unprecedented examines the backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives of Massachusetts attendees and others at the 2024 DNC in Chicago, Illinois.
