14. Getting a Young Start in Organizing with Cooper Reed Ocean of Organizing

Cooper Reed got his start in political organizing as a young person (pre-teen!) volunteering on Obama’s 2008 campaign and has worked on a myriad of issue and candidate campaigns.  Currently he is the Political and Organizing Director of the Maine Democratic party. He shares with us what it was like getting started as a young person, the impact that organizing has had on his life, the ups and downs of winning and losing and how we can make organizing more accessible to younger folks.
