He’s been the beloved director of the Schomburg for the past five years and has done much to expand the reach and the influence of the Harlem institution that devotes itself to researching and disseminating the history of African Americans. But Muhammad is also a scholar and he is now eager to evaluate everything he has gleaned about the contemporary concerns of black America from a new vantage point. He’s on his way to join Harvard University’s faculty as a professor of history, race and public policy at the Kennedy School of Government. rileyt@publicsquaremedia.org (Public Square Media, Inc.)noPublic Square Media, Inc.Moyers,Bill,Moyers,Bill,Moyers,Journal,Public,Affairs,PBS,Moyers,Election,2016,election,politics,election,democracy https://billmoyers.com/story/bill-moyers-in-conversation-how-our-winner-take-all-political-system-is-dividing-the-country/ https://billmoyers.com/story/bill-moyers-in-conversation-how-our-winner-take-all-political-system-is-dividing-the-country/#disqus_thread Mon, 06 Jun 2016 22:06:59 +0000 https://billmoyers.com/?post_type=mm_blog&p=136191 https://billmoyers.com/story/bill-moyers-in-conversation-how-our-winner-take-all-political-system-is-dividing-the-country/feed/ 0 00:35:17 Here’s what the 2016 election should be about: Winner-Take-All Politics — How Washington Made the Rich Richer and Turned Its Back on the Middle Class. It’s a groundbreaking account of how our political system was hijacked by the super rich and engineered to work for them at the expense of everyone else.

In the first part of our conversation, professor Glaude and I discussed the crisis that continues to engulf black America. "We talk about the achievement gap, we talk about the empathy gap, we talk about the wealth gap," Glaude explained, "and the value gap is this: the belief that white people matter more than others. And to the extent to which that belief animates our social arrangements, our political practices, our economic realities, under different material conditions, as long as that belief obtains, democracy will always be an abeyance in this country." We continue with Professor Glaude’s proposal to upend our politics and launch a revolution of values. rileyt@publicsquaremedia.org (Public Square Media, Inc.)noPublic Square Media, Inc.Moyers,Bill,Moyers,Bill,Moyers,Journal,Public,Affairs,PBS,Moyers,Election,2016,election,politics,election,democracy https://billmoyers.com/story/bill-moyers-in-conversation-eddie-glaude-jr-on-americas-racial-value-gap/ https://billmoyers.com/story/bill-moyers-in-conversation-eddie-glaude-jr-on-americas-racial-value-gap/#disqus_thread Thu, 28 Apr 2016 22:30:28 +0000 https://billmoyers.com/?post_type=mm_blog&p=133465 https://billmoyers.com/story/bill-moyers-in-conversation-eddie-glaude-jr-on-americas-racial-value-gap/feed/ 2 00:39:07 I’m holding in my hand what has been called “one of the most daring books of the 21st century,” a “book for the ages,” “bracing,” “unrelenting.” The title is Democracy in Black: How Race Still Enslaves the American Soul, and it breathes with prophetic fire. Its power comes because the author does not begin with “pristine principles or with assumptions about our inherent goodness. Rather, its view of democracy,” as he writes, “emerges out of an unflinching encounter with lynching trees, prison cells, foreclosed homes, young men and women gunned down by police and places where ‘hope, unborn, had died.’” rileyt@publicsquaremedia.org (Public Square Media, Inc.)noPublic Square Media, Inc.Moyers,Bill,Moyers,Bill,Moyers,Journal,Public,Affairs,PBS,Moyers,Election,2016,election,politics,election,democracy https://billmoyers.com/story/bill-moyers-campaign-finance-reform-its-not-just-liberals-anymore/ https://billmoyers.com/story/bill-moyers-campaign-finance-reform-its-not-just-liberals-anymore/#disqus_thread Wed, 20 Apr 2016 14:18:03 +0000 https://billmoyers.com/?post_type=mm_blog&p=132321 https://billmoyers.com/story/bill-moyers-campaign-finance-reform-its-not-just-liberals-anymore/feed/ 4 00:38:29 When I first met Richard Painter some months ago, I thought he must be the loneliest man in the Republican Party. He’s a conservative, and, of course, I’m not. But he believes, as I do, that there’s too much money in politics. Now, political insiders know Richard Painter well as President George W. Bush’s White House counselor and chief ethical advisor. He’s now teaching law at the University of Minnesota, and he’s causing heads to turn with a book advocating that we reduce the power of big money in politics. rileyt@publicsquaremedia.org (Public Square Media, Inc.)noPublic Square Media, Inc.Moyers,Bill,Moyers,Bill,Moyers,Journal,Public,Affairs,PBS,Moyers,Election,2016,election,politics,election,democracy https://billmoyers.com/story/voting-with-their-stone-age-brains/ https://billmoyers.com/story/voting-with-their-stone-age-brains/#disqus_thread Fri, 15 Apr 2016 23:45:27 +0000 https://billmoyers.com/?post_type=mm_blog&p=132007 https://billmoyers.com/story/voting-with-their-stone-age-brains/feed/ 13 00:42:23 On the eve of the New York primary, Bill Moyers sat down to talk with Rick Shenkman, the historian, editor and publisher of the indispensable website History News Network.
