Robert Reich, Chancellor’s Professor of Public Policy, Goldman School of Public Policy, University of California Berkeley: “Robert Reich reminds us that wishful thinking won’t save us from what’s coming, but neither should we bury ourselves in cynicism. The truth is that the bottom 90% of the country has been ignored for 50 years, and while Trump might have spoken to them and swayed them, he will not help them. So, this is not the time to give up. This is the time to use every lever of power to stop the worst of authoritarianism from taking over and to stand behind the people and organizations fighting for our country’s integrity, its principles, and our freedoms. Perhaps we can even use this destruction to build something better.” (Recorded November 19, 2024)
