Hello Reader, If we want to win a campaign we need to mobilize our friends and neighbors to turn out. We need to get people to go from bystander-mode to action-mode. How do we do that? One approach is to make it personal with documentary storytelling. I can't wait to learn more with the guests at next week's event. Join filmmaker Michael Rowley and leader Ranjana Bhandari from Liveable Arlington for a discussion of the short documentary series "Faces of Fracking" and the role of storytelling in environmental campaigns.
