Part 1:
We talk with Prof. Beth Gazley, of Indiana University, Bloomington. She studies US nonprofit management and civil society policy.
We discuss a new law that allows the government (esp. the Treasury Dept) to classify activist organizations as "domestic terrorists" and thereby deny them 501C3 status. This classification method is vague, and can allow political harassment of many organizations who may disagree with the administration. This is designed to chill the response of grass roots (poorly funded) organizations that speak out against the administration.
Part 2
We talk with John Nichols, of The Nation Magazine.
We discuss the redefinition necessary for the Democratic party. What does a political party do? What does the party chair do? Should the new head of the DNC be a party caretaker or party builder? We also discuss what the DNC should be doing to expand its reach.
