Reimagining Democracy for a Good Life

Democracy isn’t dead, it just needs to be reimagined so that all of us can flourish. To think big, we’re going to have to go granular – to the city level - and that city is LA. We will look at how Los Angeles is striving to be a multiracial democracy and what lessons we can apply to the rest of the nation. Reimagining Democracy for a Good Life is a podcast from PolicyLink and hosted by Angela Glover Blackwell. This podcast aims to infuse some hope into one of the founding principles of the United States.

    The "We" in Power | 3

    Multiracial organizing doesn’t mean that we always get along. Organizers and activists in Los Angeles know this. What it can mean is when intentions are right, multiracial coalitions can work together towards policies that benefit all. In this chapter, we hear from economist Manuel Pastor, environmental justice activist Denise Fairchild, and organizer Anthony Thigpenn. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    There’s No “I” in Leader | 2

    Leadership is not a solo endeavor. Community organizers from multiple neighborhoods in Los Angeles learned this after two incendiary rebellions in the city’s history: Watts in 1965 and the 1992 uprising. Activists, neighbors, and organizers across the city came together to take stock of the needs of the people. They’d go on to influence community and civic leaders, setting the basis for transformative leadership on the ground and at the city level. Organizer Anthony Thigpenn, UCLA Project Director of Labor Kent Wong, and historian Robin D.G. Kelley join Angela.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
