Discussing the changes of our democracy, shifting balance of power in the parties, and the near future of election season with top-tier journalists.
Join The Common Good to discuss The Future of News in a Post-Truth World with Hon. David Jolly, Martha Minow, and Newton Minow. Moderated by Rick Salomon. Thursday, December 9, 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm ET
Author David Paul Kuhn and former Virginia Senator Jim Webb will examine the drift of the white working-class voter from the Democratic party to the Republican party and the enormous impact it has had on U.S. politics. Together, they’ll help explain what drove these voters, and how that schism continues to exacerbate class conflict and political polarization today. In light of the most recent election, this will surely be a timely and essential conversation. The conversation will be moderated by the brilliant journalist Clyde Haberman. Join us Thursday, January 7 at 5pm ET.
