New Online Course: Ideology 101 in 2008
Ideology 101 in 2008
Political thought in the United States can't just be divided into two camps — us vs. them, left vs. right, progressive vs. conservative — it's much more complicated than that. There are actually a variety of progressive viewpoints on the economy, foreign policy and values — and they often contradict one another.
Join YP4 and staff and partners of the Movement Vision Lab @ the Center for Community Change for a repeat offering of this highly successful course to explore the state of progressive ideology today. Discover a range of progressive ideas, debate different perspectives, and figure out where you stand!
