Manage episode 330244186 series 2954428
Welcome to the Post-Election Therapeutic Celebratory Download Chat!
How are you feeling post-election? Joyful? Weary? Cynical? Numb?
Millie and Lily dig into it all. It’s a chat about what this election means for democracy, about ‘strategic joy’ and hope, and how to make the most of this page-turn in our country’s story.
We also reflect on the mass shootings in America from Lily’s perspective as a dual US-Australian citizen, and how Australians can help. Let’s embrace our power to drive not only better ideas, but a better kind of politics.
SHOW NOTES
