The Narrative Power of a People-First Economy

March 30th, 2023

 

Recording coming soon!

 

We the people, ALL the people, drive and shape the economy.

The dominant economic narrative in America continues to center business – what businesses need to thrive, even if that means people must sacrifice. We’re switching the focus to what PEOPLE need to thrive – it’s not just the right thing to do, it’s how a good economy actually works.

How do we communicate on the economy in a way that advances people-first policies? What does the latest research tell us about the state of the public discourse and effective messaging tools? What have we learned about responding to the opposition?

On March 30th we hosted a conversation with Lindsay Owens, Executive Director of the Groundwork Collaborative, Dana Balter, Director of Strategic Communications, Citizen Action New York, and Isaiah Bailey, Senior Fellow at Topos Partnership on ways to talk about the economy to advance a progressive policy agenda.
