David Sirota's online magazine of news & commentary
(Reader comments now accepted at Working Assets)
The Nation Magazine has published an essay of mine based on the speech I gave to the United Steelworkers earlier this week. On the eve of the 8/16 kickoff of the Progressive Legislative Action Network (PLAN), I lay out what my vision for a successful progressive politics really is. Give the piece a read.
I am the co-chairperson of the Progressive Legislative Action Network (PLAN) - a position I took after finishing a stint as a fellow at the Center for American Progress. I am also a Senior Editor at the In These Times magazine, and a writer for Working Assets, and a twice-a-week guest on the Al Franken Show. I have just completed a book for Random House's Crown Publishers entitled "Hostile Takeover" - it will be released Spring 2006. I also write a bi-weekly section for the Nation Magazine called Permanent Minority vs. Towards the Majority about Democrats failures and successes. For more on what I do, see this Washington Post story about my blog, this Molly Ivins column about my work, or this Newsweek profile about me.
