Last week at Netroots Nation, we set up a storytelling booth and asked: “What’s the biggest threat to nonprofits?”
Molly’s response, like many others, was a powerful reminder of why the work we do together is so important.

@netrootsnation.bsky.social #NN25 was incredible!
We showed a sneak peek of BOOTSTRAPS, our #UBI docuseries, and the interactive discussion (facilitated by @theubiguy.bsky.social and @corineolarte.bsky.social) was so engaging it went over time!

One thing progressives are missing too often is the need for stories. We can't just promise policies, that rarely connects for people. We need ways to express our values, to draw a vision of how the future could be better. This panel talks about ways to do it. #NN25 4/x
I loved this strategy session. Well worth a listen. 3/x

This poem, to me, encapsulated a great deal of the discussions I heard throughout #NN25.
People, activists, are not looking to return to any status quo. They want a bigger future. They want to dream for more.
