The left needs more people. Our progressive movements have to grow if we want to win, but the recent tendency towards cancel culture has not broadened our appeal – nor has the contrarian response on the ‘dirtbag left’.

In adrienne maree brown’s new book, Loving Corrections, one of America’s most energetic progressive thinkers poses a crucial conundrum: how do we liberate people from bad ideas?

They talk to Rivkah Brown about putting the pol back in idpol, understanding IDF soldiers, navigating the upcoming US election, and why we might have to just suck it up and ‘bear hug’ our enemies.
