Friends,
Welcome back to our Saturday coffee klatch, where Heather Lofthouse (executive director of Inequality Media Civic Action, and my former student) and I discuss the highlights and lowlights of the week.
Today we share with you our discussion before a live audience at the San Francisco Arts and Lectures series. We focus on:
— Parallels between what occurred in the midterm elections of 2022 and the midterms of 1954 (the first election I focused on, when I was eight years old).
— How political communication has changed over the last half-century.
— Why and how I got involved in social media, film, and video, including TikTok.
— How young people are processing information online, especially information about public issues.
— Questions from the audience.
Please join us, and feel free to take today’s poll.
