The Clock Is Ticking: Can America Escape Authoritarian Rule Before 2028?

Guests: Author and Historian Ibram X Kendi and Candidate for US Senate in Michigan Abdul El Sayed


Is the United States entering a new political era defined by rising authoritarian tendencies? Around the world, democracies are being tested—and many are failing. But what about America?


In this video, we explore the growing concerns about democratic backsliding, the role of political parties (or lack thereof) in mounting resistance, and whether the 2028 election represents a turning point—or just more of the same.


We also confront difficult, often avoided questions:


Can meaningful resistance exist without a strong opposition movement?

Is the U.S. political system stuck in a loop of familiar candidates and power structures?

How does race continue to shape political outcomes—and could it define the future of the nation?


This is not about easy answers. It’s about asking the questions that matter.
