Harvard Institute of Politics: What do you see as the chances that we will have a second civil war in your lifetime?

Harvard Institute of Politics (12/1/21 ([link removed]) )

This week on CounterSpin: Research ([link removed]) from Harvard's Institute of Politics finds young people worried about the state of US democracy and even the possibility of civil war. Yet US corporate journalists seem to feel nothing truly new is needed beyond the same old counsel: The "system" basically works, the US leads the world in rights and liberties, and "centrism" between the two dominant political parties is the wisest course, regardless of the content of their policies.

The Harvard project leader says young people still "seem as determined as ever to fight for the change they seek.” And in that, they have examples of folks who didn't necessarily have odds in their favor, but who showed that even a small group of people, willing to confront entrenched ideas and power, really can make change in the public interest. One example is today's guest: Ralph Nader is a consumer advocate, lawyer, author and radio host. We catch up with him this week on CounterSpin.
