Digital Activism and Polyamorous Love

Digital Activism and Polyamorous Love
Kathryn interviews StandUnited.org’s senior product manager Paul Van Remortel on disruptive technologies and how they are changing the way activist work. Just like Uber and Airbnb disrupted the taxi and hotel industry, StandUnited.org has disrupted political activism and leveled the playing field for Conservatives. Van Remortel leads the team responsible for StandUnited, working to make us all more involved in our communities and beyond by creating online petitions. br Kathryn also interviews Julia G. Fox, author of “And Then There Were Three: Sixty Seven Letters to Sasha”. When gay marriage was legalized in the United States in 2015, it appeared as though the last major hurdle for LGBT rights was finally overcome. Fox chronicles the reunion of her husband, George, with his former lover from college, Sasha--a man living a double life in a culture where his homosexuality could result in imprisonment or worse.
