Avery Sunshine will host an #EducateTheVote online forum on June 5 to help her fans make informed voting decisions.

Sunshine will be joined at 8 p.m. on her Facebook site and YouTube by Tori Silas-Lewis, an Atlanta attorney, community leader and former president of the Georgia Association of Black Women Attorneys, as well as Gary Davis, founder and executive director of NextLevel Boys Academy.

Sunshine said she wants to provide an opportunity for voters who might want clarification on conflicting information, need more information on candidates or have other questions such as whether they can vote if they aren’t affiliated with a designated party, how to become more involved in the voting process or how to prepare for the presidential election.
