No one speaks more eloquently about the art of resistance and why we shouldn’t give up than historian Ruth Ben-Ghiat, the author of Lucid here on Substack. Are Americans slow to protest Trump on a systematic, nationwide basis, or do we fail to give ourselves credit for what we’ve accomplished in a short time? Based on her expertise in and scholarship on authoritarianism and protest, and how they have played out in other times and places, Ruth argues that it’s the latter. If you need a shot of encouragement this morning, watch our conversation, and make sure you stay to the end, where she provides precisely the shot in the arm I needed.
