Post Primaries Progressivism: The LA Progressive Alliance Aims to Seize Electoral Success
b'I sat down with Ankur Patel, former AD 45 candidate, and Shawnee Badger, Our Revolution Santa Clarita, to talk about the primaries and the path forward. Every loss is a win, every defeat is a chance to learn, with that in mind Ankur and Shawnee help me sketch out a path forward for progressives in Southern California.\\n\\nWhat have we been weak on? Where have we been strong? How can we better organize our communities? How do we create electoral success out of those efforts?\\n\\nInspired by Gayle McLaughlin, the Los Angeles Progressive Alliance aims to bridge the divide between different groups to coordinate more successfully when it comes time to vote. Harnessing and directing the new progressive momentum is a huge task and as more radical young people get involved in politics it is time to create the kinds of new structures that we will need to carry us forward as we continue to win seats.\\n\\nTo learn more about the Los Angeles Progressive Alliance: https://www.progressivealliance.la/\\nor find them on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/laprog.org/\\n\\nTo learn more about Our Revolution/DSA Santa Clarita: https://ourrevolution.com/groups/our-revolution-scv/\\nor find them on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ourrevolutionscv/'
