 | |
Click here to watch a short video of Hayes and vanden Heuvel talking about American distrust of institutions.

Over the past decade, Americans watched in bafflement and rage as one institution after another imploded under the weight of corruption and incompetence.
In the wake of these failures, Americans have historically low levels of trust in their institutions.The latest polls show confidence in the Supreme Court at historic lows. How did we get here? With his new book, Twilight of the Elites: America After Meritocracy, MSNBC host and Nation editor at large Christopher Hayes offers a radically novel answer.
Join Free Speech TV on Thursday, June 14, 7 p.m. ET, for a conversation between Christopher Hayes and Nation magazine editor and publisher Katrina vanden Heuvel about social distance, the new American elite, and ways we can bring about change. A welcome and introductions will be offered by David Scobey, executive dean of The New School for Public Engagement.
The event is sponsored by The Nation and The New School for Public Engagement and will be broadcast on FSTV on DISH Network channel 9415, DIRECTV channel 348 and online at FSTV beginning at 7pm ET Thursday, June 14. And, as always, thanks for your support that allows FSTV to cover events like these.
Sincerely,
Don Rojas
