Andrew Rasiej, Founder of the Personal Democracy Forum
At the Personal Democracy Forum conference last week, Andrew Rasiej was not only hosting the event, he was also advocating for what he called the “Public Means Online Act.” The basic idea is explained in this interesting discussion with Scott Simon on NPR’s Weekend Edition. Rasiej also discusses the way that the concept of citizenship and the powers of citizens are changing because of the internet. It’s worth a listen.
