Brigade Co-Founder and President James Windon caught up with Fox News Channel’s Douglas Kennedy to talk about how we’re helping people speak out about issues that matter and connect with like-minded individuals ahead of the 2016 election. “Brigade makes it easy, fun and social to be political online,” Windon told Kennedy.
Millennials, in particular, can stand to benefit from Brigade. Kennedy noted that 50% of American young people don’t affiliate with the Democratic or Republican Party and less than 20% feel politically engaged. “This generation really wants to be able to talk about the issues, connect directly with each other and perhaps think about things differently,” said Stephan Nicoleau, a Brigade user interviewed for the story.
