Seattle is a very blue city, which means we have lots more doors of opportunity open. But it doesn't mean we get to sit back and rest. What can we do within Seattle to increase our voter turnout and get activists more involved within the Party and more active in general.

  • Seattle is a very blue city, which means we have lots more doors of opportunity open. But it doesn't mean we get to sit back and rest. What can we do within Seattle to increase our voter turnout and get activists more involved within the Party and more active in general. This is a question that people are asking all over the U.S. The problem is that the sort of skills necessary for effective democratic participation are either not being learned or are being unlearned. American civic life has been hallowed out, and with it American democracy. Television and other electronic media, suburbanization and the automobile, and advertizing and the "values" of the consumer culture have all atomized American society. There is little social solidarity in this sea of selfishness, fear and ignirance. Conditions are so bad that the only place many suburbanites feel that they find any genuine human connection to others is in the megachurches. The civic landscape is most barren in American southeast.
