What: Revisioning Democracy video podcast launch with guest Allan Maleche, Executive Director of KELIN in Kenya, and other guests

Why? Because we are facing unrelenting attacks and must fight back. We must vision ourselves into a better future – for America & the world.

Strap yourselves Down! Tighten your seat belts! You’re invited to join the launch of Revisioning Democracy – a new video podcast Public Conversation about the times and challenges we face right now in America – and globally — to defend our democracy and rights – and revision the world we want. This Public Conversation will examine the escalating attacks on our civil rights, authoritarianism, and our lessons, resistance, and commitment to the unfinished project of our democracy and our visions for a better future. That includes dissecting Project 2025, the conservative blueprint to destroy our democracy and impose a Christian theocracy on America – and how we fight back. Join us to be inspired by leading activists and voices from the trenches.

We will not live in a Christian fundamentalist Handmaid’s Tale! We have a greater vision!

Revisioning Democracy will examine the challenges we face in America from a queer and feminist lens, and engage activists, change-makers, and thought leaders on the frontlines of the political and cultural wars.

Our second guest is African human rights activist Allan Maleche, Executive Director of The Kenya Legal & Ethical Issues Network on HIV and AIDS (KELIN), in conversation with cohosts Anne-christine d’Adesky and Jay W. Walker of the Stop the Coup 2025 campaign to fight Project 2025. Other guests may be added.
