About Linked & Loud
'I said "Somebody should do something about that." Then I realized I am somebody.'
-Lily Tomlin
Read. Act. Repeat.
You read the news and find yourself feeling outraged and heartbroken. You’re frustrated because you’re not sure what, if anything, you can do to make a difference. But there are countless organizations, activists, and scholars doing the hard work of driving change, all looking for people like us to amplify their efforts.
Linked & Loud illuminates complex problems and connects readers with the individuals and organizations working to solve them. Each week, we go beyond horrifying headlines to empower readers to take progressive action.
About the Authors
Amber is a policy wonk in the field of public health based in Washington DC. Her forte is writing reports with lots of footnotes and getting the government to spend more money.
Katie is an Austin-based project manager working in software development. She has a passion for spreadsheets, making things that make life better, and living her values.
We met years ago through Katie’s husband (Amber’s childhood friend), and over the years our friendship has been cemented through a deep progressive streak, a passion to see the world be better than it is, mood GIFs, and embarrassing stories about Katie’s husband.
