We join Ben Rattray and Matt Steinglass as they run through democracy in a modern world. Big Tech has concentrated more wealth in fewer hands but it also has the power to give the people a voice. Grassroots movements can bring about major social change but they can also be hijacked by angry mobs. How do we change minds for the greater good and who decides what's good?
