July 24, 2016: As Democrats gather in Philadelphia this week for their National Convention, Thomas Frank blasts the "Party of the People." Frank criticized the GOP in his best-selling book, What's the Matter with Kansas? Now he turns a critical eye to the Democratic Party and how it has failed the American middle class. Frank spoke at Lawrence's Liberty Hall on June 15, 2016.  Join us for a rebroadcast of this program at 6pm, August 4th, on KPR2.
