Michael Nutter will welcome technologists and mayors to a closed-door Innovation Summit this week. At Media Mobilizing Project, we work with poor and working people every day to tell our stories and connect our struggles using media and technology. Mayors, listen up: these are the innovations that our communities need.

Last week we talked with sanitation workers, library security officers, fire fighters, and other city workers who told us how much they love their jobs helping fellow community members. They told us about the injustice of being asked to cut back more and more while corporate profits are soaring.
