A successful Netroots Nation 2024 (#NN24) Convention is over. Now begins the real progressive work.
2024 will likely be one of the most eventful years in U.S. history. At #NN24 I interviewed 40+ activists, politicians, and NGO execs to get their message out. There is much to be done!
Every year, I look forward to visiting the Netroots Nation Convention. It is the largest gathering of over 3,000 progressive writers, bloggers, activists, politicians, NGOs, and others doing essential work.
This year, there was much angst. While Politics Done Right did more interviews than any other media organization because of our mission to include well-known politicians and ALL activists doing great work, I found people a bit more hesitant to talk. Some fear the political climate and were very measured in giving interviews as they know their words live on forever. That said, dozens came or were persuaded to get their message and good works out on platforms like ours.
On Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, I did the 3:00 PM CT Politics Done Program directly from Radio Row at Netroots Nation 2024 in Baltimore.
Over the next few weeks, I will release some excellent interviews to elevate your thinking and give you hope. I interviewed some impressive activists and politicians. Following are the captions of a few.
I did at least 44 interviews over the conference. That’s hours of videos and articles to write to get on our radio networks, blogs, vlogs, newsletters, streams, podcasts, and everywhere we can ensure these people are heard. This is access the mainstream media never affords anyone to get the complete message they are trying to articulate.
This work is necessary, especially in these times. Independent media’s sole supporter is you. While the Right has the Kochs and other billionaires, we only have you. In that light, we are asking for two things. Can you help with one or both now?
I thank you in advance for supporting Independent Media.
