Things are getting bad to the point that ordinary people are not able to tune it out anymore, and the pundit class' answer of vote is looking less and less compelling. Regular people are looking for explanations and guidance. Talk to them. They want to know what has worked in the past, and what can work now. They're open to new ways of understanding the world, and we have that. Be accessible if you can.

Its difficult because there are many people who are transplants in our major cities cause they don't want to live in chudsville or wherever. They still have family in those places. The short answer is that as much as I would love to solve Ohio and Alabama's problems, I would also like to solve the problems of my Kenyan and Indian and Honduran comrades. I have no effective political or economic power on these places. I do have a smidge of influence in my local community so that's what I'm able to look out for.

I could go on but I'll pause here.
