waging politics online

Blogpac funds progressive leadership and experiments with injecting new voices in the political process using internet activism. We give grants, no strings attached, to activists on the internet who have a demonstrated record of success in either creating progressive change or creating the space for progressives to make change. We also seek moments to inject progressive power into the political system through focused internet and new media activism, (about 1/2).
Blogpac grants money to two sets of emerging leaders.
- 1) Activists who have created change outside of a traditional party or campaign structure.
- 2) Local bloggers that build community spaces for activists in their state.

About 2/2: Who We Are: Matt Stoller is the President of Blogpac. Formerly blogging with MyDD, he now incites the masses and offers strategic advice to the Democrats from his perch at OpenLeft. In 2005, he worked as the blogger for Jon Corzine for Governor, and for Simon Rosenberg for DNC Chair. He has been blogging since 2002 and has since become a caricature of himself.
