Dear friend,
Help us help you! That is our message to the Dems and other well-funded people and orgs that are fighting the Right. One message does not resonate with all. And command and control is an approach that may only really work in the military. Even in business command and control has uneven results. Otherwise, why do businesses diversify so much? Our communities need messages that resonate with them from voices that reflect their experiences. Spending millions of dollars on one TV ad, thus limiting what can be spent on diversifying the message, is an old and obsolete campaign strategy.
That is why we are asking donors, especially high-net worth individuals, and organizations like the Dem Senate Campaign Committee (PAC) to diversify its giving. Investing in strategies like ours, to empower the communities themselves, can pay huge dividends now and in the future. The loss of LatinX votes and Black male votes is a result of this lack of diversification.

Our work is to both reflect the communities' concerns, give voice to those activists at work in them, and support progressive candidates that do the same. We have had some pretty good results so far on limited investments. It is critical that donors and the Party diversify its approach and fund orgs like PowerPAC so that we may engage and empower a progressive majority that has many different perspectives but one overall goal. That is Social Justice for all.
Thank you for your ongoing support, Andy Wong |
