Such a beautiful, nuanced, necessary discussion not just within the context of Zohran's victory but in view of the larger class crossroads that we find ourselves at.

Holy crap this was good. Gonna watch again and share. A conversation I didn’t know I needed. I just really appreciated the questions asked and how you, Junot, answered, and the way you both engaged in exploring and digging into these issues as two men of color, immigrants/children of immigrants, who care deeply and think deeply about humanity. The areas you touched on are so close to my heart and it was so useful to hear your voices and words so clear in these brutal times, when it’s hard to think clearly. I particularly resonated with and appreciated how you put into words what I have felt but couldn’t articulate around how I feel about this country, my birth country, which increasingly I feel pulled to cynically want to concede defeat. Thank you. And to hear you vulnerably share how your sister’s passing demarcated your life was not only moving but a reminder of how those in our life shape us, and then shape us again when they are gone.
