Description

*This is one of the three main types of Good George episodes called Good 101, which is an educational piece. The History of Gerrymandering: The Map is the Message. Every election is impacted by this, but we don't fully understand what it is, why it started, or how it's controlling what happens in your state and country. The term is linked to a Founding Father and former Vice President (ironic). It's existed for much of America's 250 years, but it's never happened like this. We'll discuss how this came about and what solutions might exist to put this genie back in her bottle. Good George is a non-partisan project to restore goodness and integrity to civics and politics. You can support it through the podcast, writings, and upcoming digital magazine at www.GoodGeorge.us [https://www.GoodGeorge.us] (coming) and Bluesky. Please help share the Good George message!
