WFP Represents You!: Maurice Mitchell

January 2nd, 2025

 ”Elections are not the prize. Governing is the prize.”

We discuss why now is the time for a third political party to really take center stage in American democracy.

Maurice Mitchell is the National Director of the Working Families Party. He's a nationally recognized social movement strategist, a visionary leader in the Movement for Black Lives, and a community organizer for racial, social, and economic justice.

Your civic action toolkit recommendations from Maurice are:

  1. Organize! Join an organization.

  2. Create conditions where people can govern and decide the direction of their country and their democracy
