The core goal
Roll out a base-building strategy that breaks down the basics of voting and moves civic-participation trends for young people forward.
Our storyBuilt by youth.
Built by youth.
Fueled by frustration.
Aimed at hope.
In 2021, Georgia State Representative Park Cannon was unlawfully arrested while protesting the passage of SB 202. After arguing her case at the Georgia Supreme Court in 2025, she launched Keep Knocking, a fellowship to give the next generation the civic tools the system won't readily provide.
II
The curriculum
State-based programs where youth learn voter registration, voting opportunities, and how to research the policy issues that shape their lives.
III
The energy
Righteous frustration, youthful curiosity, tenacity, and a nonpartisan excitement for the future of American democracy.
What fellows actually do.
