I'm happy to see this. I've never been to a book promotion event, so this is especially interesting to me. The author talking about her book and her interaction with the audience reveals other dimentions. I love this straight talk face to face with her audience too.
Heather, we appreciate the opportunity to learn about the possibilities that lay ahead for us. Despite the bleak outlook that confronts us on so many levels, you still have hope.
Me too. I’m saving the shows and interviews to a file so I can forward the list. Her daily letter is superb. She came out of nowhere as far as national…her students knew her. Sidebar is…she put sub stack on the map. That’s how we know HCR is heaven sent…the readership off the charts. Heavenly.
How significant is the 2001 "Weyrich Memo," penned by Eric Heubeck under the auspices of Paul Weyrich, and otherwise known as "The Integration of Theory and Practice: A Program for the New Traditionalist Movement"? What we are seeing play out today, which has been building slowly since the Powell Memo in 1971 and ramping up since Bush V. Gore in 2000, seems to be straight from the Weyrich playbook.
Being a HUGE fan of HEATHER COX RICHARDSON, I can understand how she's having increasingly difficult time deciding what to write about. Life these days, is so FULL OF HAPPENINGS, it's dizzying. Bravo to Professor Richardson for all of her well intentioned LETTERS FROM AN AMERICAN. It is always a significant and important framing of the history of everything is that brings us to the present. Truly inspiring 🎉
Gosh I just love this lady!! How lucky are we to have her as the keeper of the record in this time?!?! I could (and have) listen to her for HOURSSSSS on end and still want to hear more.
However Adam... When does the MSM cover Trump's lost train of thought, or his saying Biden is taking us to WWll... It's important only if it covers both sides...
We are the only modern country on Earth 🌎 that does not have Universal Healthcare & Universal Secular Public Education Pre-K-College &/or Trade Schools. Well-Being Programs, that apply to everyone, nearly eliminating Poverty and Crime ❤😊
Fabulous conversation! HCR is so gifted, generous, and damn smart. Thank you, HCR for what you do to enlighten those, like me, who need and appreciation the explanations of our current environment and history. Wishing you the very best in future endeavors.
So appreciate all your work. Have always followed the news and have just been stunned at what has been happening for so long and was so relieved to know someone else in t he world saw all the crazy things that have been happening for the last 40 years.
"If you trust your students, and you let them alone with the material, they often invent something that you did not foresee" That's when you know that they are really learning.
I wish she would talk more about the twisting of the truth of issues of DEI and Gender Equality. Because the evangelicals and some of the people who back Trump, have been misinformed on some of the facts about the DEI and LGBTQ issues. [however, it is not good to have "WOKE" history in schools forced and the gender sex change issues pushed on kids in school ]. Whether it is true or not matters not. What is important is that they have become convinced in some belief that may not include the pertinent facts.
Adam Reilly is in deep water, way over his head wrt HCR. What an embarrassment his performance was. I thoroughly expect an apology from him to the audience for the inexcusably idiotic comments he made. Repeats the same question over and over when he does not get the "correct" answer he wants. Contrary and snide . A little fish who can't swim. He's been hooked.
Should we destroy the system? No but it can be tweeked. How about term limits for Supreme court justices? How about representatives must be elected in state wide elections not local districts? How about term limits across the board? How about justices get elected instead of appointed. How about guns are not an incontesible right. How about automatic restoration of voting tights after succesfully serving criminal sentences. How about explicit separation of church and state. Hiw about guaranteed bodily autonomy.?
Watching fm a long way away fm USA am glad to hear this. I read letters fm an American + file them becoz I no they will b a testament to history after we reach the next enlightenment. Thank u for yr service to world democracy
healthwise it's like this: president biden is in the same ballpark with mick jagger while dumpster is on the other side of the planet with his head stuck in a chicken bucket.
Let us turn this oppositional force this very potent dark manure to new blooms-A quintessential renaissance of the good the true the beautiful 🤩 Make america kind, creative, wise, compassionate, innovative, healthy: UNITED -connected cosmic awakened to benevolent brother and sisterhood where everyone is CARED FOR! ALL CHILDREN OF THE UNIVERSE! LET US GUARD THE MIRACLE OF THIS ONE LIGHT! THE UNIVERSE IS THE PURE DEMOCRACY - THE CONSERVATION LAW IS THE JUSTICE ! EVERY BODY IS CREATED EQUAL- “IMAGE OF GOD” “ALL GOD’S CHILDREN” FROM THE ONE SEED “ LET THERE BE” Thank you for this fine presentation. Vote for the awakened ones…..CITIZENS OF LIGHT! …..all this awesome gift wonder destroyed by those imposing fear,hate, violence, grabbing, fraud, obstruction, rape and following putin’s agenda to DIVIDE US by his troll farms defamation propaganda. It is why trump stole all decency…it was a carnage agenda -just look where we are!
I have NEVER SEEN President Joe Biden lose his train of thought! He always stays on topic, with a few diversions - due to questions, BUT he ALWAYS CIRCLES BACK. He is AMAZING. Very few people my age & younger can keep up with his accuity and stamina.
Folks should hrow VOTI NG DAY parties. All carpool together and no festivities until th voing is over. You can all go to the polls ogether, or just communally drop all ballots at dropboxes or mail them all together. It should be a national campaign
Democracy is when those who make decisions on your behalf have the duty to ask for your consent first. Today's republics are actually modern oligarchies in which the interest groups of the rich are arbitrated by the people, that is, you can choose from which table of the rich you will receive crumbs. The "fatigue" of democracy occurs when there is a big difference between the interests of the elected and the voters, thus people lose confidence in the way society functions. As a result, poor and desperate citizens will vote with whoever promises them a lifeline, i.e. populists or demagogues. The democratic aspect is a collateral effect in societies where the economy has a strong competitive aspect, that is, the interests of those who hold economic power in society are divergent. Thus those with money, and implicitly with political power in society, supervise each other so that none of them have undeserved advantages due to politics.
@vladdim… you… “those with money, and implicitly with political power in society, supervise each other so that none of them have undeserved advantages due to politics” LOL! Thanks for the laugh! What are you? Three years old?
Because virtually nobody on the planet truly believes if we just leave dealing with climate change to market forces (hello? Exxon?) that will take care of it al Nt even RFK Jr. believes it.
Why does anybody put stupid music underneath their speech I cannot stand music underneath talking I'm a musician it takes my attention away to the stupid music
Does Professor Richardson address the stunning success of the RFK, Jr. campaign? Does she mention the great unhappiness amongst voters toward Biden and Trump? Or, is RFK, Jr.'s campaign dismissed due to a typical East Coast elitism that dismiss any presidential candidate who is not control or owned by Wall Street and Corporate America interests. It is my hope that Professor Richardson will address the realistic prospect of a legitimate 3-way presidential race. And the real possibility that democracy will be revived and take place in 2024.
Vaccines don’t cause autism. Without vaccines, would you like to deal with smallpox and polio? And do you honesty believe Wall Street and Corporate America would, if we got rid of regulations, take care of climate change, as RFK claims it will (even though he doesn’t believe it)? Don’t believe polls 1 year out or 6 months out. Unless they’re valid .
How do we get our country back is a question being asked by conservatives as well. As to punishing the south, I had understood that southern leaders could no longer hold public office. Also, the idea of southerners paying (more) for their rebellion is not consistent with the lessons of WWI (where we did impose penalties) vs WWII (where we did not save for maximum German leadership - and provided significant resources to rebuild).
38:16 exactly opposite. Eliminating the “ control groups” ie. the electoral college and the current system of electing the senate would be a logical next step in liberalizing our democratic republic. Limiting executive power, mandatory voting and investing in public education, especially civics education, would also help
Thanks for all you do for democrcy.
Heather Cox Richardson is a national treasure ❤
Second
A shill for Democracy
She is the example of what I am talking about of how to look at things - as an adult.

You are an American hero.
The New Yorker criticism is well… there are no conservative thinkers who have power right now that are acting in good faith.
Thank you for your expertise. You have kept me sane, centered, focused, and determined in saving democracy these past eight years.
Thank you for sharing this great interview Belmont Books. Heather and Adam in conversation was a great pairing.
Reactionaries try to make history repeat itself.

FDR?
Really appreciate this segment and all of you especially. Heather❤

This interviewer really wants Richardson to talk dirt on democrats. What's the deal!?

The black churches down south have been doing that for years until it was voted illegal by the Republicans.
😊
Id really like to hear a conversation between Dr. Condalisa Rice and Professor Cox-Richardson. 💭
Michael Steele was the Chair of the RNC, he was ALSO Maryland's Lt. Governor to former Governor Ehrlich. Wasn't bad; O'Malley was better.

Why hasn’t Ms Richardson touched on RFK, JR’s run for the Presidency as an independent?
Because virtually nobody on the planet truly believes if we just leave dealing with climate change to market forces (hello? Exxon?) that will take care of it al Nt even RFK Jr. believes it.
Why does anybody put stupid music underneath their speech I cannot stand music underneath talking I'm a musician it takes my attention away to the stupid music
You should debate or have a discussion with someone who disagrees….Victor Davis Hanson

Biden is not losing his train of thought. He is realizing that he is about to start unto a new kettle of fish.
