Karine Jean-Pierre Discusses Independent

Karine Jean-Pierre, former press secretary and senior advisor to President Biden, discusses her forthcoming book Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside Party Lines. In a hard-hitting-yet-hopeful critique, Jean-Pierre defines what it means to be part of the growing percentage of our fractured electorate that is Independent, explains why it can be worthwhile to carve oneself a political ideology true to personal beliefs rather than a party affiliation, and provides the questions you need to ask yourself to determine where you fit politically. As a history maker, veteran public servant, political analyst, and independent thinker, she urges Americans to think outside of the blue-and-red box as we consider what’s next to save our democracy.
