Talk of the Towns 6/9/17

Producer/Host: Ron Beard, University of Maine Cooperative Extension
Studio Engineer: John Greenman

Indivisible—engaging citizens and elected officials in representative government

What were the origins of Indivisible and Indivisible MDI?
What are some of the highlights of your work so far?
What challenges do you face?
What have you learned about citizenship, and about representative democracy?
So far, there has been so much to react to, trying to counter efforts to turn back progressive policies… do you sense a time when Indivisible will have an opportunity to focus more on vision, less on reaction? (moving from resistance to articulating and supporting a progressive agenda?)

Guests:
Members of Indivisible MDI
