Well, it cuts both ways, right?
Because the severity of what our predecessors have been up against in the past can be disheartening because you can think, like, why does this stuff keep coming back?
Why do we never defeat these things?
But
The other way to look at it is to think, wow, our predecessors have a lot to teach us about how to defeat these things, about how to defeat one of the things that you and I have talked about a lot in the past year or two, Joy, is the way that we defeated the fascist movement here in the United States that wanted us not only not to join World War II, but if we were going to join, to join on the side of the Nazis.
This is so, so good.
You and I, especially around your book, Medgar and Marlee, we've talked about the strategy and the human strength that it took to build a movement to defeat segregationism.
And that itself was a movement that was a minority movement that was fascistic in nature and that absolutely succeeded in ruling whole parts of the country until it was defeated by an equal, by a larger and smarter movement that took it down.
The people who went before us in this country who have defeated forces that were a lot more impressive than what we're up against right now have stories to tell us about what to do.
And that's why you are interested in history.
That's why we've all been covering so much history on all of our shows.
It's not just because the bad guys recur.
It's because the good guys...
who are never as famous as the good guys.
The good guys, they have stories to tell us about what to do.
And we need to stay loud.
We need to stay united.
We need to protect the press.
We need to protect the institutions that we've still got as they are under assault right now.
But it starts with joining something.
