Unstoppable Leaders Leading the Way

Temitope Amoye is the Director of Advocacy & Organizing, leading strategic grassroots mobilization, digital organizing, and coalition-building to lower prescription drug prices. With a background in political outreach, organizing, and fundraising, she has successfully managed large-scale advocacy programs and driven high-impact campaigns. Previously, she held leadership roles at ActBlue, NextGen America, and the Warren for President campaign, bringing deep expertise in policy advocacy, electoral strategy, and movement-building. Temi is a first-generation Nigerian American who received her bachelor’s degree in political science from Frostburg State University and her J.D. from Howard University.

Through the Unstoppable Voters: Leaders Accelerator, Temi is focusing on making prescription drug affordability a central political and voter turnout issue for the fall, especially for Black Americans. Her campaign targets members of the Congressional Black Caucus, aiming to build support for bringing down drug prices. At the upcoming CBCF conference, she’s designing an interactive Price Is Right-style game that gives conference attendees, which include lawmakers and their staffers, a visceral experience of what prescription drugs actually cost. Temi is using spectacle, story, and serious play to make the issue impossible to ignore and get politicians and their teams to sign on to support Patients for Affordable Drug’s work.

Sophia is a 30 year old youth organizer, activist & agitator who has spent her career running into fires — from leading humanitarian and legal aid operations for asylum seekers in Tijuana, Mexico, to driving across the country to take unhoused voters to the polls in Georgia’s runoff, to now building an organization to combat Texas’s troubling turnout numbers among young voters. Raised by a public school art teacher and single mother, it’s unsurprising that Sophia’s work has always involved creativity — whether improvising without institutional resources or going up against the institutions themselves.

Through the Unstoppable Voters: Leaders Accelerator, Sophia is working to increase youth civic participation in Texas. Her campaign focuses on registering young voters in Austin, particularly in communities that other voter registration organizations aren’t reaching. Her approach? Speed dating and singles events inspired by the Gen Z popularity of shows like “Love Island,” turning voter engagement events into something young people actually want to show up for and are excited to attend.

Angela Levine spent almost three decades of her career in Marketing and Communications, most recently as a content creator and business owner. Volunteer advocacy was always a priority and how she spent much of her free time outside of work.

A few years ago, she decided to make a career shift to begin pursuing work in non-profit advocacy as a career. She landed at Red Wine and Blue, a women-led organization that mobilizes the diversity of women to collectively fight against extremism in all areas of their lives. 

Initially as a Regional Organizer, and now as a Manager in Distributed Organizing, Angela works to empower women around the issues they care about and create local groups to bring more folks into advocacy.

Through the Unstoppable Voters: Leaders Accelerator, Angela is building upon Red Wine & Blue’s peer-to-peer outreach system. She’ll be training Red Wine & Blue group leaders across the U.S. to use tech and non-tech methods for friend-to-friend voter organizing — one of the most successful methods to mobilize voters. To drive interest across the organization and participation in training events, she’s creating surprising invitations and introducing new incentives for group chapters.

Shannon Weiss is a content strategist and community organizer based in metro Atlanta. She serves on the leadership team of Indivisible Georgia Rising and leads its Creative Protest Action Team, using storytelling, art, and grassroots organizing to engage voters and strengthen civic participation. With a background in filmmaking, content marketing, and public outreach, Shannon is passionate about making democracy more accessible, welcoming, and actionable. She also serves as an Area Manager with DeKalb County Elections, supporting election operations and voter access.

Through the Unstoppable Voters: Leaders Accelerator, Shannon is working to boost voter turnout with positive energy. Her campaign focuses on registering young and first-time voters in South DeKalb County, Georgia. Her approach: a visually striking, interactive art installation that draws people in, invites them to participate in something meaningful, and gets them registered on the spot. The installation, named Write to Rise, is designed to move, allowing Shannon and her team to meet new voters where they are.
