Episode description

MSNBC host and Citizen board member Ali Velshi invites Nobel laureate Maria Ressa onto the show to discuss how journalists and everyday citizens can stand against a dictator seeking to collapse democracy. More than Germany or Italy, Velshi says, it's the Philippines we should be looking to right now. "It took about 6 months," Ressa tells him, "before our democratic institutions crumbled." Hear Ressa's inspiring advice about what to do after "illiberal leaders" are voted into office.
