Think yourself alive.The Victory Walk tells the story of one man’s long struggle for the rights of the silent majority, told through the eyes of an idealistic yet practical part-time right hand man, who in the era of digital democracy, performs this role remotely. However, the Movement is but his evening and weekend devotion. Nine to five, he thrives in the dry world of municipal finance advisory, with podmates Gregory and Cameron, increasingly for county finance departments in Northern California, where he meets his match.The Victory Walk criss-crosses the United States in search of tactics and strategies to dislodge the entrenched special interests that have cornered the market for opportunity, and fill the vacuum instead with true fairness. This is the true story of the American dream, in all senses of the word.Can one person change the world? Yes, if we are all that one person.
