Manage episode 517823878 series 3557325
When does government transparency actually build trust—and when does it backfire? Todd Glover is the executive director of the Municipal Association of South Carolina.

From packed gymnasiums to calm councils, Glover reflects on how misunderstanding fuels fear, why information must come early, and why faith in the reasoning abilities of everyday citizens keeps democracy alive at the local level.
