Bob Bauer, Sam Issacharoff, and I have launched The Democracy Project at NYU. We begin with a series of 100 essays in 100 days from US and international figures of diverse ideological views and experiences.
Our first 3 essays now live are highly provocative, from Frances Lee, Randy Kennedy, and Nick Bagley.
