About this episode
Organizing protests on a national scale? Democrats can do that in spades. Cultivating local candidates—not so much. Charles Duhigg, Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter and author, joins host Krys Boyd to discuss the success of Republican strategy to develop local leaders and why the Democrats have fallen behind, the difference between organizing and mobilizing, and why “all politics is local” really does win elections. His article in The New Yorker is “What MAGA Can Teach Democrats About Organizing—and Infighting.”
