Show Notes
Today the Banner & Backbone team — with Nick Paro, Lawrence Winnerman, Melissa Corrigan, she/her, and Shane Yirak — welcome on the Centered America team — Sharad and Gavin — for an incredible discussion on the steps being taken by pro-democracy organizations to shift the Overton Window back to reality, re-centering the discussion in the U.S., and reigniting a civic understanding.
So what does it mean, and not mean, to be center the discussion?
It means putting people over power.
It means defending the Constitution.
It means discussing policy based on the principles of fairness and dignity.
It means all people are people and are due certain unalienable rights.
It does not mean capitulating to a fascist regime.
It does not mean leaving people behind or throwing people under the bus.
