As part of National Vote Early Day, on October 24, 2020, ten days before the U. S. Presidential election, Climate Reality Project, EARTHDAY. org, and Hip Hop Caucus teamed up with Empire to produce a livestream program on Twitch, entitled Your Vote, Your World to encourage young people from coast to coast to participate in the democratic process. The program featured Al Gore, Don Cheadle, Stacey Abrams, Joseph Gordon Levitt, Thomas Middleditch, Kal Penn, Questlove, Mark Ronson, Jonathan & Drew Scott, and Lil Dicky as well as musical performances by Dave Matthews and Ozomatli. The two hour long, audience interactive program included an enlightening interview of Al Gore by the 15-year-old climate activist, Alexandria Villaseñor, as well as 10 questions asked to Al Gore by powerful voices like Dr. Mustafa Santiago Ali, Calum Worthy, and representatives from NAACP. The program also featured a performance by the cast of Hamilton from Michelle Obama’s organization When We All Vote. Other organizations participating included OneUpAction, Plus1Campaign, Voto Latino, American Public Health Association, Broadway Green Alliance, and student organizers from colleges around the country who submitted videos encouraging their peers to vote. The program was livestreamed on Amazon Music’s Twitch account, and this feed was streamed through the event’s microsite and the organizations’ social media accounts, as well. Across all platforms, the program has amassed over 350,000 views.
