We the People Speak

Voices of Resistance and Inspiration

“Our project began in August 2025 with a call for stories asking people who were being emotionally or personally impacted by the unprecedented actions challenging our democracy, to write and submit stories to Unite 4 Democracy. Their stories became the foundation of what has become a powerful and moving production.”

–Linda Zimmerman, Producer and Co-Founder Unite 4 Democracy

We the People Speak is an original Unite 4 Democracy production that brings together diverse voices both past and present through storytelling, music, and video–engaging and inspiring audiences to speak out and act together as trustees and stewards of our democracy and civic culture.

Our Audience Speaks Out…

“It was inspirational. The story ‘Shoes’ hit me hard. It was a powerful and moving experience.”

“The thing I loved most was the renewed vigor I felt about our whole community.”
