Democracy for Sale

We’re told our voices matter. That choice belongs to us. That power lives in numbers. But what happens when influence can be bought? In this episode of Shadow and Light, the focus shifts to power — exploring how money shapes decisions, influences narratives, and determines what is heard. Anchored in Citizens United v. FEC, this episode examines how political systems can be reshaped when wealth is given a louder voice. Through poetic storytelling, sound, and layered reflection, Democracy for Sale questions the idea of choice in a world where attention, influence, and even truth can be funded. Who do you hear when the message is loud? And who decides what reaches you? This is not just about politics. This is about power.
