Bill, Why is the Third Act Not a Democratically Run Organization?
In its present form it is a 'Top Down' organization run by Bill and a Rockefeller funded 501C3. Its heavily advised by 'Young Progressives' with 350 backgrounds.
Currently, it is NOT a true democratic 'Bottom Up' separate 501C3 incorporated entity organization led by elected Third Act Board Members and Senior Leaders.
What is the main mission? 1. Climate Change (that's what I signed on for and the biggest threat facing humanity) 2. Voting Rights, 3. Various other 'Young Progressives' social causes such as what AOC wants. Remember Bill ... some of us age 60+ have some wisdom and we may not be all "Progressives". Is there room for "Moderates" - "Conservatives"?
You talk about organizing the magical 3% .... but before you just talk the talk ... get a feel for what some early Third Acters are interested in.
I'm a huge fan, filled with gratitude - thank you, Bill! Here's a request: in talking about challenging the banking industry, can you suggest a good, or a better bank to deal with? Are there any? How to best research this, even on a small local scale? My area is NYC, and Hudson River Valley, in case that helps with recommendations. But this kind of information could be so helpful to many others. sending you personal good wishes in 2022 - take care of yourself! Joan Grubin
