Political information has become entertainment. As progressives have long-time lacked the opportunity to see the potential impact for democratic values and civility that political infotainment can bring, the 2020 election campaign has faced a turning point.

Politainment for Change is made possible in cooperation with the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung Washington DC office. https://www.fesdc.org
