This Week on Democracy Matters: The Story of Citizens United v. FEC

On this week's program, we take a look at The Story of Citizen's United v. FEC - a new video out by the Story of Stuff. A good starting point for those looking to understand how corporations have rights and powers that people, communities, and nature don't have - or does it not go far enough in terms of what we should do to change the existing legal structure which elevates corporations over all else? And, an interview with Tom Anderson with the Transition Town movement in the Pacific Northwest.

Each week on Democracy Matters we bring you stories from the frontlines as communities bring rights-based organizing to their communities - asserting their local self-governing authority to make the critical decisions that affect their lives and their community.
