Talking Strategy, Making History Richard Flacks Each episode will focus on a different aspect or example of the general theme. Our kick-off frame is the awkward position that progressives find themselves in.

What is far less clear is what this means practically, in terms of organization and elections. For many years, the slogan of the Left has been to work both “inside and outside” the Democratic Party. But what does that “inside” part actually look like?The podcast project comes from our experience as progressive activists--and from the urgency of now. Dick Flacks taught sociology at UC Santa Barbara and Umiversity of Chicago for 60 years. He's of the founding generation of Students for a Democratic Society and helped write the Port Huron Statement (along with Tom Hayden and the big Lebowski).

We are two women who love the Lord, coming together to talk about the hard stuff most people don't want to address in the church. There is an urgency to share Christ and the biblical truth. Join us as we have Holy Spirit lead conversations. Our hope is to edify one another as the body of Christ! Proverbs 27:17 says "As Iron sharpens Iron, so one man sharpens another." We weren't created just to live ordinary lives- We were created for such a time as this!
