Anand Giridharadas is one of America’s most prominent and topical thinkers on democracy and change making. He is also an eloquent critic of corporate sustainability and, in his words, completely obsessed with the question of why sustainability development, arguably the world’s most rousing and important agenda, fails to galvanize the passions of the general public.
In this episode, we discuss why he thinks the masses aren’t being moved to partake in to one of the most critical causes of our history, and instead are left feeling like they’ve only received an invitation to a broccoli party.
Giridharadas is fast becoming one of America’s most important voices on the matter of people power, and his remarks should be heeded by all people genuinely invested in movement building for a sustainable future.
