Why we do what we do @CitizenUniv

“Democracy is one of the most faith-fueled human activities there is. Democracy works only when enough of us believe democracy works. It is at once a gamble and a miracle.” @ericpliu t.ted.com/OmK7m72

Excited to share this piece in the Chronicle of @Philanthropy about a mutual-aid program at @CitizenUniv called the Civic Collaboratory. It works, and it is spreading!
