**Season 4 live taping** You're invited to join Baratunde and Kate Raworth for a live Zoom conversation and audience Q&A on November 21st, 1 pm ET/ 10 am PT. We’ll discuss how we can fundamentally reframe our understanding of what economics is and does, and what doughnuts have to do with it and why we're spelling that pastry like the British.
How To Citizen with Baratunde is a podcast where we reimagine "citizen" as a verb and remember how to wield our collective power.

How To Citizen with Baratunde reimagines the word “citizen” as a verb and reminds us how to wield our collective power. So many of us want to do more in response to the problems we hear about constantly, but where and how to participate can leave us feeling overwhelmed and helpless. Voting, while critically important, simply isn’t enough. It takes more to make this experiment in self-governance work. Listen in to learn new perspectives and practices from people working to improve society for the many. Join writer, host, producer, and activist Baratunde Thurston on a journey beyond politics as usual that will leave us all more hopeful, connected, and moved to act.
