Your Call 092007 Dream Politik

When was the last time a progressive political campaign swept you away? If you’re the average American, it's been a while. On the next Your Call we talk with Professor Stephen Duncombe, author of Dream: Re-imagining Progressive Politics in an Age of Fantasy.  Professor Duncombe says the left leaves behind many potential supporters by disdaining the tools and forms of pop culture. By relying too much on appeals to reason, do progressives cede political turf to the right? What would ethical spectacles look like? Can ending poverty be as moving as an SUV commercial? It’s Your Call with Sandip Roy and you.
