@ Washington,
D.C.
With ten years'
training as a newspaper and magazine reporter and editor, experience winning
local, state, Congressional, and judicial campaigns, a fundraising tally
in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, as well as political experience with
state legislatures, labor, anti-poverty organizations, arts and culture work,
Internet organizing, with specialties in grassroots organizing and Philadelphia
politics, I am proud to be organizing for the Media and Democracy Coalition.
The American
communications system – TV, radio, cable, newspapers, magazines, recording
industry, public media, community media, online video and print and music
– is at an unprecedented turning point, almost entirely because of the Internet,
one of the greatest democratizing forces in human history. Decisions being
made now will determine how democratized our communications system will
be for at least a century: whose voices will be heard, and how, and whether
the public will be able to use it as a tool to win back control of our own
government.
Other personal:
I speak Mandarin, make amazing chicken and dumplings, and after ten years
in Philadelphia has been given permission to say I hail from there. I possess
one of the coveted dual-purpose "Go Obama! Go
Phillies!" t-shirts sold out of some dude's trunk in Mt. Airy in Nov. 2008
before both won. My family is from Leland, MS., which is where Highways 61
and 82 meet. And I hug.
Here is my general blog. Here is my blog that is specific to Philly politics, on YPP.
Here is my resume.
Here is some newspaper and
magazine writing from 1997 to 2007. The Daily News op-eds are good.
Here is some campaign writing,
from 2005 to 2008, including a sock puppet show we did for a ballot initiative.
Humor is always undervalued in politics.
Me on Facebook
and Twitter. Here are some
lolcats.
