  3. Truth or Disinformation?: Barbara McQuade

    13 FÉVR.

    Truth or Disinformation?: Barbara McQuade

    We discuss that Americans should prize truth over tribe. A lot of disinformation is hiding behind the First Amendment – using the right to free speech to tell lies. The muddy media and information ecosystem is turning us against our neighbors.   Barb’s civic action toolkit recommendations are:  Meet people in real life because when we know them it’s harder to vilify them  Get accurate election-related information from your secretary of state’s office   Barbara McQuade is a legal analyst for NBC News and MSNBC, co-host of the podcast #SistersinLaw, and a professor at the University of Michigan Law School.

  4. Looking Out for the Public Interest: Paul Sabin

    6 FÉVR.

    Looking Out for the Public Interest: Paul Sabin

    We discuss how the public interest movements in the 60s and 70s can be a source of inspiration for American democracy and why this movement was a formidable force in influencing public policy that benefits all of us, from traffic safety to the Clean Water Act.    Paul’s civic action toolkit recommendations are:  Focus on state and local government Make liberal cities and states compelling models for good governance to be replicated across the nation    Paul Sabin is the Randolph W. Townsend, Jr. Professor of History and Professor of American Studies at Yale University and previously served as the founding executive director of the non-profit Environmental Leadership Program.

    Playing Defense for Democracy: Ezra Levin

  7. Organizing Is Power: Elyssa Feder

    16 JANV.

    Organizing Is Power: Elyssa Feder

    We discuss the long history of organizing as a tool for fortifying American democracy, making it more equitable and just. Americans live from the benefits of organizing every day, whether that’s women’s suffrage or disability rights.  Organizing is the tool for everyday people who are not in positions of power to solve the problems their communities are facing.    Elyssa’s civic action toolkit recommendations are:  Get clarity on what you’re good at and what brings you joy. Organize for the long haul.   Elyssa Feder is the co-founder and executive director of Rising Organizers, which has trained nearly 4,000 activists and held fourteen intensive fellowship cohorts on community organizing skills.      Let’s connect!

  8. How Political Parties Should Behave: Didi Kuo

    9 JANV.

    How Political Parties Should Behave: Didi Kuo

    We discuss the role of political parties in representing your interests and turning those interests into public policies that meaningfully make a difference in your life. Since the 1980s, both major political parties have adopted neoliberal policies, marked by declining responsiveness to major policy areas, and instead prioritizing pro-market and anti-state policies for economic growth and reliance on the private sector.    Didi’s civic action toolkit recommendations are:  Get engaged on the local level so you can be part of the solution. Support the party builders!   Didi Kuo is a Center Fellow at the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies at Stanford University and the author of The Great Retreat: How Political Parties Should Behave and Why They Don’t.     Let’s connect!
