If you weren’t able to join us live Monday evening, Heather Cox Richardson and I had a fabulous conversation, and you can watch us now. The historical context Heather brings to this moment is incredibly helpful for those of us who are trying to process what is happening in real time, and more importantly, decide what we’re going to do about it. I hope you’ll feel as uplifted by the conversation as I did.

We started out with knitting, as knitters always do, before we took off on a wide-ranging conversation. Many of the topics came from the excellent comments Civil Discourse readers left for me yesterday, when I asked what you were interested in hearing us discuss. We ended up on a topic many of you flagged, “soft secession,” or what I refer to as “functional federalism”—the role state and local leaders can play in outrunning the Trump administration’s power grab.
It’s conversations like these, including your comments in the fast scrolling, but fun and interesting feed that accompanied our conversation, that keep me going. Thank you for joining us and for participating. It truly was a night of civics education in action, and I look forward to spending more time like this with you.
We’re in this together,
Joyce
