Some Personal News: Today I'm launching Lucid, a newsletter about abuses of power and how to counter them. It provides clear analysis about the consequences of democratic erosion, and the costs of disinformation and corruption in government, boardrooms, and institutions. 1/
Lucid also covers the global resistance to tyranny. Today's activism manifests in Black Lives Matter marches around the world, in the global youth climate movement, and in the attention to civic and religious faith in struggles against oppression. 2/
Three times a week, Lucid delivers essays, live chats, and interviews with people working on the front lines of anti-corruption, human rights, social justice and healing. Sign up for free. If you like what you read, consider becoming a paid subscriber. lucid.substack.com/p/welcome-to-l…
Lucid is a space of solidarity where we can help each other process the losses we suffer. We need clear heads and transparent communications to recover and rebuild trust, including trust in our collective power to stand up to situations that threaten our dignity and freedoms.
Tomorrow's essay, "Drain the Swamp," looks at the corruption that hides behind authoritarian promises to reform society. Friday is my interview with William Browder, who is on Putin's "kill list" for lobbying for Magnitsky legislation to punish human rights offenders. /5
I look forward to thinking together about the most pressing issues of our time. FIN
