Watch this brand new #DemocracyUnchained episode now! As we enter the final few days before the #2020Election, one message is clear: Our political climate is more divisive than ever, and navigating our way out means learning to find common ground & listen to each other.

@danmoulthrop We'd like to think stars are aligning for a democracy to become unchained. Too cheeky?! In any regard, we think the Steyer brothers -- both @jimsteyer and @tomsteyer have good taste (and great ideas). #democracyunchained

[State of American Democracy @democracy_state]

Tonight, we talk about rebuilding civic culture (starting in higher ed). Join philanthropist @TomSteyer, philosopher @dsallentess, author @shoshanazuboff, columnist @kevinroose, & Pres. @michaelsorrell. Premieres TONIGHT at 7P ET/4P PT on YouTube: https://t.co/hQ63KKZ3yZ

This NEW episode dropped last night! Don't miss a video conversation among political thought leaders as they explore the challenges of big money in politics — a salient topic as we approach one of the most divisive (and expensive) elections in modern history.

[American Academy of Arts & Sciences @americanacad]

As you consider pre-#debate viewing options, how about the new episode of Democracy Unchained from @democracy_state? The discussion will illuminate ways to fight against corruption and lobbying and fight for accountability and transparency. #democracy

[Dan Moulthrop 🇺🇦 @danmoulthrop]

This one gets to the heart of what is keeping democracy in chains (spoiler: $$), and what we can do about it: lots of flavors of campaign finance reform + leveraging the power of philanthropy. https://t.co/rayOwiMRyZ

[State of American Democracy @democracy_state]

Really proud to be joining this group to talk #repealHB6 and the corruption (and continued audacity) of our statehouse

[Nick Rathod @nick_rathod]

I've been working to build progressive power in the states for nearly 20yrs. I've seen first hand the damage groups like #ALEC, the Kochs & others have done culminating with the election of #Trump. If you'd like to learn more please tune into this episode of #DemocracyUnchained.
