How did the country find itself witnessing the erosion of faith in democracy, and what can be done to reverse course? We take a moment to look at the state of Democracy here in the United States and abroad, along with steps that can be taken to shore up the democratic system. We’re joined by Susan Stokes, Tiffany and Margaret Blake Distinguished Service Professor at The University of Chicago and Director of the Chicago Center on Democracy and writer, filmmaker and Black studies scholar Charlene Carruthers.
