This morning, New York woke up changed. In a city that rarely rewards idealists, Zohran Kwame Mamdani, the 34-year-old son of Uganda and India, a proud democratic socialist, just made history as the new Mayor of New York City.

Don reflects on the magnitude of this moment, what it means for a city that has broken dreamers before, and whether this time, just maybe, hope can survive the system that swallows it. Because this win is more than symbolic. It’s a test of whether empathy, justice, and courage can still lead in America. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
