Norman Solomon is an author, journalist, media critic and activist. He is co-founder of RootsAction.org and executive director of the Institute for Public Accuracy. Solomon's books include War Made Easy, and Made Love, Got War. His new book is War Made Invisible: How America Hides the Human Toll of Its Military Machine.
In this wide-ranging conversation, Norman Solomon reflects on the first 100 days of Trump's return to power. He counsels that the struggle to defend, restore, and then improve America's democracy and a humane society will take many years -- if not much longer. Why? Because Trumpism is a symptom and not the cause of an American empire that is rotting from within.
Norman Solomon warns that the enemies of multiracial democracy and a true We the People pluralistic democracy are working expertly to return the United States to the 1950s and the evils of Jim and Jane Crow if not before. He also warns that the corporate Democrats and the mainstream liberals have no real answers for Trump's great talent (and appeal for his MAGA people) as a propagandist, dark therapist, and political strongman in an era of extreme social inequality and rage at the corrupt elites.
And Norman Solomon shares his hard-earned wisdom and advice on balancing pessimism and optimism and how to build one's own internal Noah's Ark to survive this worsening disaster here in America and around the world.
