This Thursday, October 24, head to Chapel Hill’s Varsity Theater at 7 p.m. for a free screening of the documentary “The Deciders,” about a group of North Carolina activists (the “Patriotic Millionaires”) who are working across party lines to build momentum for economic fairness – including a higher minimum wage, plus closing the tax loopholes that allow the super-rich to pay less than the rest of us.
Visit DecidersMovie.com to watch the trailer and learn more about the film.
Visit PatrioticMillionaires.org for more on the organization.
Aaron discusses the movie and the movement with Jacob Brooks, the North Carolina director of the Great Economy Project.
