How progressive campaigners in the US managed to win bipartisan legislation by building a hugely diverse coalition that brought together everyone from the American Civil Liberties Union to the Koch Brothers and the religious right, combined with personal stories of everyone from victims of crime to former prisoners. Nisha Anand - former punk rock protestor, chief of staff to legendary organiser Van Jones and now CEO of Dream Corps - was at the heart of this amazing breakthrough. She talks about how they managed it and what the lessons are for campaigners on other issues. Produced by Larger Us and distributed by Real Agenda Radio www.realagendaradio.org
