Robert Scheer is one of the all-time great progressive journalists in American history – from his days at Ramparts Magazine through his legendary series of interviews with American Presidents, his tenure at the LA Times, his many years as the progressive voice on Left, Right, and Center to his founding of Truthdig and now the Scheer Post. 

Mr. Scheer will be a featured guest at an upcoming PDA Town Hall, where we will discuss the multiple crises afflicting the country and the world, the state of contemporary journalism, and his thoughts on how we can build a more peaceful and progressive future.

Join Robert Scheer and his guest, Alan Minsky, executive director of the Progressive Democrats of America, in the first episode of a new series of the Scheer Intelligence podcast, exploring the complex issues of Jewish identity, the fight for religious and political freedom, and the urgent need for justice in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Through candid conversations with voices rooted in Jewish tradition and progressive activism, this series delves into how the principles of debate, human rights, and democratic liberty can guide us toward a more compassionate and equitable future, as opposed to the profound shame of this dreadful historical moment we disown as ‘Not in Our Name.’
