We believe any meaningful form of democracy requires an educated, informed, and engaged society. We've created a subscriber-supported, ad-free, trusted civic social media platform and are working with partners such as PlaceSpeak.com and others to strengthen democracy and the important societal pillars required to strengthen democracy around the world.

WHAT I'M INTERESTED IN

HISTORY

As worsening wealth inequality in the US and around the world undermines any societal aspirations of meaningful democracy, and as broadcast and social media has been consolidated and is now controlled by a small group led by people such as Rupert Murdoch, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and a handful of others, we built a non-profit social network and launched a pilot in 2017. We are continuing to work on a federated global civic social platform for democracy.
