How To Be a Citizen
Howard Bryant, Roger Berkowitz and Eric Liu discuss public action with Saraya Wintersmith, GBH News politics reporter and host of the What is Owed? podcast. Bryant’s Kings and Pawns sets Jackie Robinson’s 1949 testimony before HUAC beside Paul Robeson’s 1956 defiance; Berkowitz’s A World We Share traces how Hannah Arendt’s friendships shaped her politics; and Liu’s Live Like a Citizen offers eight everyday practices of democratic life.
