Cayden is joined by political strategist Waleed Shahid, to discuss the lay of the land that is the many…many hot takes and finger pointing that has been going on since last week’s election both inside and outside the Democratic party. Waleed recently laid out a really helpful typology on his Substack and we’ll discuss what we should we sit with and digest versus what should roll right off our backs. We’ll also assess how the Uncommitted movement played out through this election season and where we go next to continue the important work toward Palestinian safety and liberation.

Then Executive Director of Future Currents, Connie Razza, joins to talk about scenario planning and research work they’ve already been doing that can help us prepare for this treacherous moment. Find their recent report on how movements prepare: Getting Ready & Staying Ready: Lessons from 2025-26 Scenario Exercises
