Block & Build

We Failed to Block the Return of MAGA


Listen Later

Lots of folks are getting tugged at by the “blame game” that happens after every election cycle. Instead of looking at counterfactuals, we want to ground in reflection and self-critique, as well as where trends are going and what we need to do next.

Cayden is joined today by a panel of folks we often look to when we need to think about what the hell is going on:

  • Bill Fletcher, Jr., Convergence Magazine Advisory Board
  • Tobita Chow, Convergence Magazine Editorial Board
  • Kermit Thomas, Director of Political and Civic Engagement at Grassroots Global Justice
  • Erin Heaney, Executive Director at Showing Up for Racial Justice
  • Learn about the Joint Resolution of Disapproval and how to contact your legislators.
