My conversation with American journalist / professor Marcie Bianco continues, as we talk about the different blends of conservatism and the different personalities that dominate conservative politics north and south of our border. Why is Doug Ford so short-sighted? How can the American people overcome voter suppression?

I also begin exploring the ideas of Italian philosopher, writer, and political organizer Antonio Negri. This week, I consider what he has to say about horizontal political organizing, the power and limitations of protest, and the nature of pure democracy.
