Progressive Values Stories: David Sirota On Values and Fairness

by WhatAre Progressive Values [courtesy of Blog for America]

I attended and video taped a talk by David Sirota at the Wellstone Club in Oakland, California.   David mentioned  fairness as being the major progressive value.

Edwin:  My name is Edwin Rutsch, and I am working on a documentary about progressive values.  And there are arguments made out there by George Lakoff that say that conservatives have talked about their values, and articulated their values and have organized around their values.  And what progressives haven't done, is that they have not clearly articulated their values.  So what I'm wondering is, what you think about that discussion, and what do you feel progressive values are?
