YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Joseph A. Califano Jr. discusses his book, "Our Damaged Democracy", at Politics and Prose on 3/13/18.

Califano, an attorney and statesman whose long and distinguished career includes representing The Washington Post during Watergate and serving as Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare under Carter, draws on his breadth of experience with Washington for this analysis of what is going wrong in government today. Working systematically through the three branches of government, Califano combines history and civics lessons to show how far out of touch our institutions have become, warning that without civility and trust we risk losing the safeguards of democracy and freedom.
