In our current information economy, math is everywhere. The people we date, the news we see, the influence of our votes, the candidates who win elections, the education we have access to, the jobs we get ― all of it is underwritten by an invisible layer of math that few of us understand, or even notice.
But whether we know it or not, our numeric literacy ― whether we can speak the language of math ― is a critical determinant of social and economic power.
It’s critical to understand how the impact of math runs throughout our electoral process in ways most of us never notice ― from gerrymandered voting districts and AI‑created political ads to ballot measures and candidate choices.
COUNTED OUT shows us the power of math that undergirds our democracy. Who holds that power? Who doesn’t? And how can we all speak the language of math to fully participate in a world that belongs to everyone?
On April 24, 2025, we invite you to join the filmmakers behind the eye-opening documentary COUNTED OUT, as we empower advocates, organizers, educators and leaders across the country to host local film screenings of the film and imagine a world in which everyone can sit at the mathematical table.
Join us for a special screening of a powerful documentary that explores how math shapes everything from economic opportunity to democracy. Don’t miss this chance to be part of an important conversation. Reserve your spot today.
