Creating Democracy
Two years ago we wrote about how to honor the gallant among us while simultaneously safeguarding our communities. We also discussed how to separate the wheat from the chaff in identifying this milieu. Starting it all off, we elaborated on what needs to be done to create democracy in the US, and how to go about it.
Since then, we've established an online archive of briefings, articles, essays and reports essential to this task, as well as discussed our proposals with leading activist scholars throughout the US. We now feel it is time to move forward with implementing our initiative (and those of others) by establishing a Public Good Foundation in order to channel resources to the most appropriate recipients.
As this will entail a sizable endowment to be effective, we will be searching for individuals with the interest, determination, connections and ability to help us put this together. If you know of anyone, kindly e-mail them this post, and we will take it from there.
