What if the information ecosystem was never as neutral as we thought? Corporate money, PR, think tanks, and university research can all shape the “truth” we encounter.

If we were starting from scratch today, would we really design a branch of government that consists of nine unelected people appointed for life? What about term limits or a national vote…? Julie Suk helps us imagine something better. LISTEN HERE: www.futurehindsight.com/episodes/our...

We discuss an innovative framework to reclaim our constitutional future from a Supreme Court that has amassed power for itself and undermined how we govern ourselves.

We have a Supreme Court in the United States that has spent decades amassing power for itself while undermining how we govern ourselves. So what can we do to take that power back? LISTEN HERE: www.futurehindsight.com/episodes/our...

The Constitution starts with “We the People.” Constitutional lawmaking was ours at the beginning. It can be ours again.

Amending the Constitution is famously hard. It requires two-thirds of both houses of Congress and three-fourths of the states. But maybe we can build new democratic institutions without touching it... Listen to our brand new episode HERE: www.futurehindsight.com/episodes/our...

The Supreme Court has changed the Constitution plenty of times without a single amendment. And each time, nine unelected justices made the call… So what can we do about it? 🧵(1/3)
