John, is the problem for Democrats in rural America too many
silos?
Um... Yeah, kinda?
Â
Not in the literal sense. Rural America is expansive and that's one of
the many reasons we love it. But, this concept that Democrats are as
scarce as a needle in a haystack out here is FALSE!
Â
ROCC proves there are great Democratic organizers in every corner, every
community of rural America. Covering the turf is not a problem, we just
need better organization, so we need the ROCC!
Â
However, in the figurative sense, too many silos are a major roadblock
in achieving the organizing infrastructure that we need to win on the
issues we care about.
Â
We are of course talking about the "silos" between our various
organizations that partition us from communicating with one another.
Â
One might argue that there are simply too many organizations. But we
would counter that argument: we need the small, local organizations
because only genuine local leaders know their communities and can
effectively lead on the issues that matter to them. Top-down consulting
never works.
Â
We simply need to break down these "silos" so that we can benefit from
one another's experiences, skills, ideas, and the labor of our efforts.
That's why ROCC is engineered from the ground up on the principle of
empowering local leaders and coordinating the most effective grassroots
mobilization efforts into national strategies.

Democrats have the organizing infrastructure we need to turn the tides
in rural America?Â
