2016 in Focus

Democracy in Color produces periodic articles and podcasts to provide a needed narrative for re-thinking American politics “in color”. As we are in the heat of the 2016 election, I’ve selected a few posts and podcasts that offer a New American Majority analysis of Democratic campaign strategies, polling and the path to victory. I thought you might find them of interest.

• 97 Days Until the Election: What Should You Do? A look at some of the organizations, methods, and tactics you can work with to help achieve a New American Majority-powered victory in November.

• How to Read a Poll  In this Facebook Live session, Steve discusses how to understand what polls are trying to tell you.

• Where we Stand This piece came out in July. It discussed the state of the race at that time. Many of the points still apply. Steve highlights how the race is turning into a battle for the soul of the Democratic Party.

• The Best of Steve Phillips and Brown is the New White Many of you have Steve’s book, Brown is the New White. If you haven’t gotten a chance to read it, or if you want to hear a discussion of the core ideas, this podcast is a great way to learn more.

• Fighting for Ohio: The Swing State of Swing States This podcast is a discussion with David Pepper, Chairman of the Ohio Democratic Party and Subodh Chandra, a Cleveland-based civil rights attorney, on how Democratic Party politics in Ohio are adjusting to the New American Majority.
