Act Out! [89] - This Is How You Battle “Idiocracy: The Documentary”
Wed, 11/23/2016 - by Eleanor Goldfield

In a special episode this week, let's talk education – the power of which is so strong that governments will, and do, withhold it from their own people as a twisted but efficient form of oppression. As our access to publicly funded, quality education continues to falter, we take a look at a group of people barred from knowledge – and thousands of miles away, a creative response in solidarity to raise awareness and educate. Finally, from the front lines, yet another reminder and source of inspiration to get informed, get engaged and rise up.

The American people clearly spoke, and the drubbing Democrats received requires looking beyond just issue polls, voting patterns, campaign strategy, or get-out-the-vote tactics.

The recent decisions by two of the most influential national newspapers of record to not publish their endorsements of Vice President Kamala Harris says a lot about how seriously they take Trump’s threats to democracy and his promises of vengeance against his enemies.

If the Democrats’ theme of 2017 was Resistance, the theme for Democrats in 2025 needs to instead be Opposition — and these two GOP senators may be the models to emulate.
