Your America - Democracy's Local Heroes Home About Meet Local Heroes Share Your Story Take Action

Now in paperback!

In Your America, NOW on PBS executive producer John Siceloff and writer Jason Maloney investigate how America is moving forward by responding to the tough challenges of recession, globalization, and more. By revealing the inspiring, courageous stories of ordinary citizens that have accomplished extraordinary change, Your America reminds us that we all have the strength to transform our communities. The success of these local heroes gives us a fresh take on the power of grassroots democracy and non-partisan civic activism.

'You will not read their stories without being inspired to act--and that's the beginning of hope for democracy.' -Bill Moyers
