Review of What it Takes to be a Good Citizen

I especially like this story from KUER in Salt Lake City because it focuses on only two people -- two women in the same city who have taken completely different paths to how they view citizenship. Anyone who has kids and works for a living, will identify with the hard choices and tradeoffs that these two adults make everyday. Your listeners will find themselves in this in depth story. It reminds me of a very engaging Sunday magazine piece. If you like this, also try Small Stuff Democracy; and Convenient Democracy.
