By Maegan Carberry ⋅ January 3, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

If you stayed awake all night on Nov. 7, 2000, in a state of disbelief that exploded on Sept. 11, 2001, and persevered through the subsequent defiling of our nation’s core to rise again, hopeful, on Nov. 4, 2008, then today is one of the best days of your life.

While visiting the National Archives over the holiday, Maury, Nate and I were hit with a technophobic realization — and it wasn’t the result of having born first-hand witness to the original copies of the Magna Carta and women’s suffrage amendment.

I’m proud to announce that I’ve accepted a job with the Energy Action Coalition, a DC-based network of about 50 environmental rights groups committed to solving the root problem we face in America today: a dependence on dirty, unsustainable foreign oil and a climate in peril. I believe that working for aggressive, equitable, immediate change [...]

I’m hosting an event in conjunction with Living Liberally and Net Movement Politics, and I hope you can join me.
It’s been a year since President Obama engaged a new generation of Americans in his historic non-traditional campaign, but what are those fearless young leaders doing now? We’re gathering some of them together to discuss how [...]
