Pains in the Ass for Democracy: A Conversation with Indivisible’s Leah Greenberg

The Trump administration’s goal is going to be to divide and conquer. To isolate us from each other and break our resolve and spirit, but Indivisible believes, that if we stand together, we can protect our families, our neighbors, and our democracy. That our shared future depends on every day Americans choosing to fight back. To treat an attack on one of us as an attack on all of us, and they’ve written a Practical Guide to Democracy on the Brink to help us do just that. The Guide is a set of strategies and common sense steps for anyone living in America feeling upset, scared, or determined to do something. This is a hopeful and fired up episode for those of us done mourning and ready for action. Mainstream media has let us down, so we need to support those doing independent work more than ever. The extremists were able to shape the minds of this nation because the far right invested in their voices early and often. Please give the counter message an opportunity to fight back.

American Democracy is not promised to us and, with all the forces working against it, saving it will take a level of work most people aren’t ready for. The Politics Girl Podcast is here to give people a reason to care and a reason to fight. Our goal is to inspire. To instill in people a true understanding of what this country COULD be, if the right people were fighting for it, and what it WILL be if they don’t. It’s a political podcast yes, but more than that, it’s a podcast about America’s potential, where one passionate, and slightly mouthy, immigrant attempts to motivate the country to become what it promised to be but, so far, has yet to become. You’ll leave more knowledgeable, more engaged, and more sure that you, personally, can make a difference to the future of American democracy. Everyone’s got a little time for that right? Subscribe for new episodes every Tuesday. We’re in a fight for our country. We sure as hell better know what we’re fighting for. xo
