This workshop is co-hosted with Rally + Rise, a group of ordinary New Yorkers committed to proactive local advocacy for progressive legislation in NYS, on behalf of all Americans.
The systems and procedures that drive democracy are often obscured from the view from the very people it's meant to serve. This workshop opens up these topics, and others, which are ignored by political science classes, the media and even Wikipedia pages.
We'll be covering topics such as:
- Political Geography
- The Party Structure in America
- How to engage in the existing system for real effect
This workshop will be lead by Ben Yee. The information he'll be sharing has enabled him to take on establishment leaders to become the current Secretary of the Manhattan Democratic Party and State Committeeman for the 66th Assembly District.
