"Populist Dialogues" are available to air on your local community access cable station

"Being the media" is extremely important. Whether TV, print or radio, we don't get coverage in the major corporate media, so we need to do it ourselves. We need to present the analysis and the framing of the issues of the day so that people can understand issues from a populist, anti-corporate progressive perspective. That is why we created the Alliance for Democracy - Populist Dialogues. Now we need to share them with the rest of the nation and that is where you come in. You can "be the media" by helping to put our programing on your local public access TV station. It's easy!
