Democracy School in Albuquerque - FEB 3-4

Desert Rock protest

"If you take no other training this year, do the Democracy School. It is a superlative unfolding revelation of how corporations have hijacked democracy. It meticulously deconstructs the historical arc that brought us to this precipice. But most importantly, it then departs into the highly pragmatic and inspiring work now underway that is slowly turning the tide . . . This Second American Revolution may be the most important political work going on anywhere in the country or the world." ---Kenny Ausubel ‘05, Founder and Co-Executive Director, Bioneers
