California once wanted to strip immigrants of services.

Housing is too expensive, income divides are too wide and good-paying jobs are \u003ca href=\"https://fairshakeca.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">too scarce\u003c/a>. But the state no longer seems to be tearing at the seams over issues of race and representation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In my new book, \u003ca href=\"https://stateofresistancebook.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">“State of Resistance: What California’s Dizzying Descent and Remarkable Resurgence Mean for America’s Future,”\u003c/a> I suggest that the U.S. can draw lessons from California’s political and social shifts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Term limits, for example, opened up opportunities for new politicians of color. \u003ca href=\"http://ccep.ucdavis.edu/s/CCEPFS9-FINAL-4-6dmz.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Easier voter registration\u003c/a> helped lower the barriers for new and young voters. The power to “redistrict” – to draw the lines for state and congressional seats – was taken from a state legislature eager to protect incumbents and given to a citizen commission less invested in the past.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, such structural reforms are only effective if there is a citizenry ready to take advantage of them. To make that happen, a new generation of community-based organizers became more adept at linking together communities, mobilizing voters and promoting winnable policy change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This same strategy of combining structural shifts with grassroots organizing and pragmatic policy may help restore the American Dream as well. But to get there, the nation will need to overcome the tension between what journalist \u003ca href=\"http://www.cnn.com/interactive/2017/politics/state/2016-election-anniversary/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ron Brownstein\u003c/a> has called the “coalition of restoration” – older Trump voters seeking a way back to what they see as American greatness – and a “coalition of transformation” that consists of younger and more diverse constituents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Closing that social distance will be crucial. The California Dream was never just about one person (or one generation) and their route to individual success.

It’s hard to know for sure, but it’s also not prudent to wait around for elders to come to their political senses or for the younger generation to age into power. We need a national game plan that can accelerate what the slower pace of demographic change might push along.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Making our future\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>California still has far to go, of course. Housing is too expensive, income divides are too wide and good-paying jobs are \u003ca href=\"https://fairshakeca.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">too scarce\u003c/a>. But the state no longer seems to be tearing at the seams over issues of race and representation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In my new book, \u003ca href=\"https://stateofresistancebook.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">“State of Resistance: What California’s Dizzying Descent and Remarkable Resurgence Mean for America’s Future,”\u003c/a> I suggest that the U.S. can draw lessons from California’s political and social shifts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Term limits, for example, opened up opportunities for new politicians of color. \u003ca href=\"http://ccep.ucdavis.edu/s/CCEPFS9-FINAL-4-6dmz.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Easier voter registration\u003c/a> helped lower the barriers for new and young voters. The power to “redistrict” – to draw the lines for state and congressional seats – was taken from a state legislature eager to protect incumbents and given to a citizen commission less invested in the past.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, such structural reforms are only effective if there is a citizenry ready to take advantage of them. To make that happen, a new generation of community-based organizers became more adept at linking together communities, mobilizing voters and promoting winnable policy change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This same strategy of combining structural shifts with grassroots organizing and pragmatic policy may help restore the American Dream as well. But to get there, the nation will need to overcome the tension between what journalist \u003ca href=\"http://www.cnn.com/interactive/2017/politics/state/2016-election-anniversary/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ron Brownstein\u003c/a> has called the “coalition of restoration” – older Trump voters seeking a way back to what they see as American greatness – and a “coalition of transformation” that consists of younger and more diverse constituents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Closing that social distance will be crucial. The California Dream was never just about one person (or one generation) and their route to individual success. It was about the promise of a state that welcomed newcomers, confidently invested in its children and looked forward to its future. That’s a recipe for progress in the Golden State and America alike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/series/californiadream/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The California Dream series\u003c/a> is a statewide media collaboration of CALmatters, KPBS, KPCC, KQED and Capital Public Radio with support from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the James Irvine Foundation and the College Futures Foundation.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-11660142\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/CADreamBanner-800x219.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"219\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/CADreamBanner-800x219.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/CADreamBanner-160x44.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/CADreamBanner-1020x280.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/CADreamBanner-1180x324.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/CADreamBanner-960x263.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/CADreamBanner-240x66.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/CADreamBanner-375x103.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/CADreamBanner-520x143.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/CADreamBanner.jpg 1867w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/11652271/when-the-next-generation-looks-racially-different-from-the-last-political-tensions-rise","authors":["byline_news_11652271"],"programs":["news_6944","news_72"],"series":["news_21879"],"categories":["news_8"],"tags":["news_22665","news_20202","news_2162","news_17286"],"featImg":"news_11653445","label":"news_72"}},"programsReducer":{"possible":{"id":"possible","title":"Possible","info":"Possible is hosted by entrepreneur Reid Hoffman and writer Aria Finger.
