Ep. 8: Abigail Bellows and Josh Rudolph on Alternative Measures for Combating Corruption

Abigail Bellows (Carnegie Endowment for International Peace) and Jessica Lowing (Open Society Foundations)talk about the nexus of passion and power in the context of community organizing and political activism against corruption. They reflect on why uniting people's voices and building institutional change are critical ingredients in overcoming corrupt systems. No matter where we're from or what language we speak, we want the same basic things, like food and security. By joining together, citizens can advocate for -- and help enact -- the social contract. And freely "exercise what it means to be human" with collective confidence. NOTE: This session was originally in May 2019, which was long before COVID-19 has disrupted and tested our world. Yet, a lot of what is said here about working together and anti-corruption certainly resonates today. Listen in to learn more about this and other #opengov stories on our SoundCloud.
