Me the People

Culture-shifting popular entertainment that bridges divides, deescalates tension, and inspires real change.

ME THE PEOPLE is a warm-hearted television series for broadcast/streaming with online elements. We are focused on three aspects:

  1. making the show (12 episodes have been mapped out),

  2. making sure it’s seen (through deep grassroots outreach and traditional marketing), and

  3. making a lasting impact through alliances with nonprofits that amplify our reach.

We change the culture when we change the narrative around the big issues we face as a nation.

ME THE PEOPLE accomplishes this with authenticity, transparency, and the telling of humane stories.

Our team is developing a watchable show and doing so with philanthropic funding, an innovation that makes it possible to be picked up by a prestige streamer/broadcast network as soon as possible.

ME THE PEOPLE includes star power to attract big audiences while telling real stories that show the common thread of kindness in the American way.

Outreach with nonprofits nationwide connects audiences to specific ways they can contribute to making change. 

Audience data, online engagement, and impact tracking provide measures of the lasting legacy generated by the series as it supports the work of the individuals and organizations leading the way.

Media is one of the most effective and efficient means of opening hearts and minds in order to take us beyond “US vs. THEM” to engage the power of ME and WE.
