Another example of a winning Democratic primary campaign ad. Although not the candidate endorsed by Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Davids is still running on a campaign of affordable health care, quality education, economic opportunity, gun safety and environmental responsibility. If successful in the general election she will represent a number of firsts: the first lesbian congresswoman from Kansas, one of the first Native American women in Congress, and the first congresswoman with a mixed martial arts history. Definitely not your run-of-the-mill candidate.
Since our platform is about expressing ideas and ideals instead of cash flow, clicks, or fundraising, we have the freedom to include a wide range of topics and formats that might not work elsewhere. We don’t need or want paid content, promotional materials, or story lines designed to please donors.
So the idea here is to present videos one or more of the editors feel speaks to them. Sometimes it will be news. Sometimes it will be history. And a lot of the time it will be culture. You can not and should not separate these things: it is diversity and intersectionality that makes our movement strong.
