Join Democracy Now! host Amy Goodman in conversation with Senator Bernie Sanders at the Free Library of Philadelphia. The title of this event shares the title of Sanders’ new book, Our Revolution: A Future to Believe In.

Perhaps America’s most widely known standard-bearer for progressivism, Bernie Sanders inspired hope and a fervent following with his 2016 Democratic Presidential campaign. Currently serving his second term as the junior United States Senator from Vermont, Sanders still champions equality for all Americans, rallied against the war in Iraq, and works toward income equality, universal healthcare, and campaign finance reform. Our Revolution shares stories from his recent campaign trail and maps out his ideas to continue the fight for all Americans’ futures.
