At this year’s Aspen Ideas Festival, Amy hosted back-to-back post-debate discussions with a panel of influential writers. We’ll hear excerpts from the conversation, in an effort to provide analysis of the first Democratic debates of the 2020 presidential campaign.
We also talk with two academics to discuss how their policy work could be used in tandem with politics to bring about change in areas of technology and inequality.
Finally, Amy reflects on the LGBTQ movement, on the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising.
