What a brilliant conversation! I really enjoy HCR so very much and always look for her content when I'm feeling sad and uncertain about our future. She gives me hope. I hope that millions of Americans will take her words to heart.
So important to remember what we are striving for in a democracy: the right to be treated equally under the law and the right to have a say in our government.
Thank you so much for this conversation Maria and Heather ! It moves me deeply during this very important time, when we need wisdom to help heal the suffering in our nation and the world. I like that you guide us to how we can think to better our self's our communities , the nation and the world.
Maria has a foundation on the shoulders of sooo many family members that have passed. For democracy. They are cheering from the rafters for her stand in this moment.
I loved listening to remarkable Maria Shriver talking with remarkable Heather Cox Richardson! Thank you both for being such intelligent, interesting, strong women who share your thoughts with us.
🔥Great program and subbed! HCR is a national treasure. ✊🇺🇸🗽⚖💙🌊💯Right up there with Mr. Roger's, Bob Ross, and George Carlin, for me. Most influential.💯🤟
Heading out tomorrow with two friends to the local university to see if any students need to get registered. We just walk up and ask, and then we have a QR code on a lanyard so they can start to register right then. This worked with 100's of students in 2022. Not rocket science. Just telling people they are important enough to have a say.
@@KindlyAthena I think you can google how to make a QR code for a website, and then just size it to print out. You could do it on small slips of paper for them to take with them, or make a badge out of it. I got my first one from a candidate, and then my friend made more for us. They were magical for those young people, as they use QR codes all the time. The disadvantage is that you didn't actually know that the kids followed through and completed their registration. For that reason, League of Women Voters and other groups that register want to have the paper registration forms and collect them and turn them in.
I love Heather! I won't be watching though. There are so many people who should and could have received the award Megan and Harry got. Again love you Heather - watch all of your videos if I can. XOXOXO
As Jon Stewart said, it's a hell of a gig to have on the right when you defund government for decades and then run on the fact that it is failing/not viable, etc
Oy! Sadly, our internet service is just one of the things on our long list of sub-par services in our current reality! So, yay for infrastructure! Democracy can work if we remember WE are the government. Up with civic education flooding the zone!
🙏💞Blessings you two ~ AND ~ MARIA ~ I’m a KIWI by birth; American passport & European 🇪🇺 passport holder ~ what I call “ An Outsider Looking In “ ~ I have an offering for both the American Left & Right ~ please 🙏 stop saying you’re “ the greatest “ #1. It’s BS ~ America 🇺🇸 is one of the most dysfunctional democracies on the planet simply because “ WE THE PEOPLE are not participating in the hard non paying ( fiscally) INDIVIDUAL volunteering works required to keep a democracy ALIVE ~ 66.1% turnout for the 2020 election 🗳️ ~ cf to New Zealand totalled 77.51 ~ with people + 50 age average mid 80% turnout ~ when I left NZ in the 1973 consistently the turnout was in the mid 90 % ~ the cynicism of American commercial TV on NZ culture has slowly lowered our voter turnout over time .. We’ve also as Americans GOT TO stop saying the American President is the most powerful man on the planet ~ that is a pure fiction . David Ford. OMD.
The problem now is that people will threaten you and try to make your life miserable. There does not seem to be law and justice, no one held accountable. People in power will not allow your questioning. What do you do about that? Look what D is doing in Floriduh. Just don’t try to get in their way.
Very good conversation!!!
Thank you, great interview!
Such respect and admiration for you both. Thank you for all that you do.
Love listening to Heather Cox Richardson!

I agree with HCR, "We the People" have allowed our democracy to weaked and falter by being complacent for 40 years. This is our time to step up.
So important to remember what we are striving for in a democracy: the right to be treated equally under the law and the right to have a say in our government.
More of this with Heather, please! Wonderful interview, in spite of technical issues.

A wonderful chat. Thank you Heather. You make it clear for all of us.
I love Heather Cox Richardson.

I didn't know you could do that... The QR code just takes them to your states voter registration site? I would love more info on how you do this!

FACT: In 2021 the House voted 232-197 charging Donald Trump with incitement of insurrection. The Senate voted 57-43 that he was guilty.
Heather works hard to make sense of this miasma of disinformation and political gamesmanship.

I think Biden's already working on providing broadband in rural areas.
I’m reading your book, it’s fantastic! aka EX-MAGAGranny J6 defendant

The sound quality is really garbled , 🙏🏻 those microphones gotta go…

Maria tie your hair back and stop running your hands thru your hair. It’s distracting and reduces your gravitas
Thank you!!
