November 4 is a show focused on facilitating a discussion about America the day after Donald Trump is defeated. Hosted by Toby Moffett and Abigail Omojola, the show aims to help citizens “reimagine America” during these unprecedented times rather than simply rebuild it. The goal is to not only recover from Trump but to leverage that recovery to renew our commitment to and convictions about our democracy.
Hosts Toby Moffett and Abigail Omojola discuss what is happening in the world the day after the 2020 election. They look backwards and forwards to consider how the election's outcomes impact the process of reimagining the future of our country. Joining them in conversation are Congresswoman Madeleine Dean (D-Pa.), former White House Communications Director Don Baer, and journalist Michael Tomasky who currently serves as editor of Democracy, a special correspondent for The Daily Beast, and a regular contributor to They New York Times and The New York Review of Books.
