What’s a way to get your city council to pay attention? Tell them 25,000 times
Longtime BSD client Wal-Mart Watch has always run "site fight" campaigns directed at individual communities fighting to keep Wal-Mart out. Its most recent local campaign might be its biggest yet: activating populations in the three biggest cities in the U.S.: New York, Chicago and LA (where Wal-Mart has almost no stores, but is looking now to start building). So far, it's been a great success.

Our film, The Ground Truth, continues to be screened in homes and community centers across the country. Blue State Digital provides the tools that activists need.”
