This conversation was originally recorded in September 2025, but Stuart Stevens’ reflection on American change, civil rights, and democracy feels especially relevant as we head into July Fourth.

Stuart Stevens reflects on a deeply painful week in American life by looking back at Ole Miss, his father, and the long struggle for civil rights in Mississippi.

He recalls the 1962 integration of Ole Miss by James Meredith, the violence and resistance that followed, and how one university once defined by Confederate symbols eventually began the hard work of change. Stuart connects that history to today’s political moment, arguing that even in dark times, Americans cannot give up on the possibility that the country can become better.

This is a personal reflection on memory, democracy, Trumpism, civil rights, and what it means to keep faith with America.
