How Do You Organize When Democracy Is Dying? CounterStory Perspective with Melissa Corrigan 📱

Is democracy collapsing — or are we just being tested?

In today’s episode of CounterStory Perspective, Melissa Corrigan sits down with Dr. G (aka Your Weirdo Friend) to talk about something most people are feeling but few are naming: what does community organizing look like when the world feels like it’s ending?

We’re not talking about fantasy apocalypse. We’re talking about political chaos, climate anxiety, economic instability, social fragmentation — and the real exhaustion people feel trying to stay engaged.

So how do you build power when people are burned out?

How do you create solidarity in a culture designed to isolate us?

And how do you organize without losing your mind?

This conversation is practical, grounded, and surprisingly hopeful. If you’re feeling overwhelmed but still unwilling to give up, this episode is for you.
