If you feel overwhelmed and discouraged about what is happening in this country and don’t believe you can make an impact, this show about Red Wine+Blue will offer you good medicine, and, direct ways to see how you can take a stand, make a difference, and even experience joy while creating potent political change.
Once a loose consortium of mid-western suburban women, Red Wine + Blue is now a national political organizing platform founded by political veteran and media expert, Katie Paris. Today it boasts nearly 700,000 members, and it’s growing every day. Why? Because Red Wine + Blue is intelligent and values driven, and it offers its members top-notch resources and opportunities to educate their political minds, learn how to organize, and build strong community-based relationships all with one goal in mind: To fight authoritarianism, and have fun along the way.
This show features Julie Womack RWB’s Head of Organizing. Also featured are a few excerpts from Red Wine + Blue’s dynamic speakers who put the spark to the educational fuel provided by the platform’s superb organizing resources.
