Sinopse
Join me today in conversation with Tim Anderson, animal advocate, co-founder and board member of the East Bay Animal PAC, and engaged citizen. We met over a decade ago working to stop backyard animal slaughter from becoming legal in our city, and as a result, he became one of my closest friends — and biggest inspirations. In today's episode, Tim shares ideas for effective engagement with elected officials, talks about the power of local civic engagement to promote compassionate policies, and offers numerous ways to get involved locally on behalf of animals — finding friendships and our own authentic voice along the way. Tim has been involved in grassroots organizing for 25 years. His efforts include work on the successful senatorial campaign for Minnesota Senator Paul Wellstone, and the 2008 presidential election of Barack Obama. Locally, he’s worked on various Oakland mayoral and city council elections, as well as city-wide ballot initiatives. Support this podcast today at Patreon.com/ColleenPatrickGoudr
