YouTube Description
as posted by the channelHow does the critically acclaimed progressive writer Rebecca Solnit view the world? In our era of democratic backsliding, technological disruption and looming climate disaster, is there a more hopeful way to enact change?
Solnit has written a new book, “The Beginning Comes After the End,” a thematic sequel to her classic “Hope in the Dark.” David Marchese, a host of “The Interview,” says the new book “shines a light on the vibrant world often hidden within our own seemingly gloomier one — a world that has embraced ideas of interconnection, ecological care and political equality.”
Solnit and Marchese discuss fighting climate change, countering Donald Trump, the power of the people in Minneapolis and more during their conversation.
“The Interview” features conversations with the world’s most fascinating people. Each week, co-hosts David Marchese and Lulu Garcia-Navarro talk to compelling, influential figures in culture, politics, business, sports and beyond — illuminating who they are, why they do what they do and how they impact the rest of us.
