Are Portland’s Progressive Politics Working? Nicholas Kristof Doesn’t Think So

  • Summary

  • Earlier this year, New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof argued that Portland’s tradition of progressive politics isn’t getting us the results we need, as the city struggles with a number of social problems. And it’s not just Portland: He says all liberal West Coast cities are facing more social ills than their more pragmatic East Coast counterparts. Today, we’re asking Kristof to explain his diagnosis of Portland’s problems, and what he thinks the West Coast’s challenges mean for progressive politics nationwide.
