We are CivicMedia/MN, a local non profit created to bring local affairs to local people and educate them about the many faces of public governance. Its main purpose is to engage citizens and students in understanding issues of governance and public policy, critiquing media coverage of critical policy matters, encouraging public discourse and taking collective action to resolve problems.
Truth to Tell, our public affairs radio show, is an independent production, financed, produced and brought to the public by CivicMedia/MN, as its primary vehicle to expand discussion and debate on local governance at all levels, in an effort to engage and empower citizens and students (with major emphasis on underserved communities throughout the Metro area) in learning, debating and acting to solve issues, identify political barriers often encountered in those processes, and to understand and cope with formal and informal systems directly affecting their communities, neighborhoods, schools and livelihoods.
