From https://kapow.works :

Most electoral campaigns in the US show up every few years asking for your vote, your money, and your trust. Then they disappear.

Kat Abughazaleh tried something different. During her congressional campaign in IL-09, she invested in the community by using resources to feed people, host accessible events, and turn the campaign office into a space that actually served the people it hoped to represent.

Now we’re building on that idea. KAPOW scales a model where campaigns don’t just take from communities, they invest in them.

This show defined a big part of my childhood (and the animatronic puppet suits were made by the Jim Henson Company, as the show was one of theirs).

The show in general had a massive amount of biting satire, but this bit in particular is super relevant to me once I rediscovered it.

P.S. Not sure which flair to use. Mods, please feel free to fix as you see fit.
