Reimagining Democracy for a Good Life

Auteur(s): Angela Glover Blackwell
  • Résumé

  • 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.
