The 2020 US Election is unlike anything this generation has ever experienced. A global health crisis has threatened lives and livelihoods, a climate catastrophe is closing in on earthlings by the day, the Black Lives Matter movement has become more powerful and prolific than ever before and tensions continue to rise between world leaders. Celebrities have become some of the primary influencers of change and record numbers of voters have arrived in droves – either by post or at polling booths –\u00a0 across the United States.<\/p>\n
