12 - Bhaskar on Bernie: Talking Democratic Socialism with Jacobin Editor Bhaskar Sunkara

June 24, 2019

We dive back into Bernie's speech on democratic socialism with the help of Bhaskar Sunkara, founder and editor-in-chief of Jacobin magazine. Bhaskar explains why it makes sense for Bernie to call himself a democratic socialist and traces the long history of democratic socialism in America. Plus, we hear from a few more parents what democratic socialism means to them.
