This week, we’re joined by professor of political science Adolph Reed Jr. to discuss the power of organizing versus mobilizing, how to address capitalism as a root problem, the task of getting money out of politics, and more.

We explore how and why the left has fallen short of building robust, lasting coalitions, and why it’s so important now. We also get into the central issue of money in politics — what kind of model, existing or otherwise, will bring about democracy in American elections? We’re incredibly grateful to Professor Reed for joining us on the show, and we hope you enjoy this thoughtful conversation.

You can listen to this conversation as a podcast on Pandora, Spotify, Apple Music, and more.
