Host May Boeve kicks off Season 2 of How We Build This with NY Times Bestselling Author and strategist,  Heather McGhee for a timely post-election debrief. Heather explains why authenticity plus clear, repeatable policy wins volunteers and votes. She also revisits her book,  The Sum of Us, to unpack “drained pool politics” and the real costs of zero-sum thinking. Together, May and Heather spotlight the organizing muscle behind big victories, from Working Families Party, to year round door-knocking.
