Episode Summary:
In this special season finale of Terrified Nation, Debilyn Molineaux takes us back to the 2018 Bridge Alliance Summit, where she delivered a thought-provoking talk on the future of democracy. Using nature’s fractals as a metaphor, she challenges us to think about how small, interconnected efforts can build a resilient democratic system. Seven years later, have we made progress? Are we working together more effectively?
As we wrap up Season 3, Debilyn invites us to reflect on the power of collaboration, the need for a shared strategy, and how we can continue strengthening our democracy. This episode serves as both a retrospective and a call to action—because the work doesn’t stop when the season ends.
