Anne's Share: No Shy Person Left Behind

From Anne: Hello everyone, it’s nice to be a member of this group and I look forward to meeting you! Part of the reason I joined this community is to learn and debate from others’ lived experiences and knowledge, much like what Landemore describes in this essay. I would be curious to learn from the group if any of you have participated in citizens’ assemblies? If so, what about this article resonated? If you haven’t participated, does this article intrigue you or give you hope about dissolving partisan gridlock? Later this week, I am traveling to Akron, Ohio (I am based in New York) to observe a citizens’ assembly focused on finding policy solutions for affordable housing. I promise to come back and share what I learn.
