Episode description
This episode makes our hearts happy for so many reasons – first of all, our guest, Angela Lang, the Executive Director at BLOC is amazing and we can’t wait for y’all to listen to her insights. Secondly, this conversation gets not just into community organizing, but the many strategies for creating long standing civic engagement. Our chat taps into the importance of creating more than one-off, one-election voters, but instead fostering consistent engagement in community, civics, and politics. In this we get into how this is done and specifically how BLOC has become an unstoppable force in Milwaukee and beyond, coining the concept of the Silent Canvas. Listen in to learn all about it and what they’re doing to get ready for this election and those ahead.
