Are You Treating Politics Like a Hobby?

Are college educated Democrats going to cost Joe Biden the election? Eitan Hersh, a Political Science professor at Tufts, joins Offline to take a closer look at "political hobbyists," aka people who think that getting involved in politics means following the news and forming political opinions. Eitan's book, Politics is for Power, lays out a roadmap for folks who are tired of online takes and ready to get involved in politics at the community level—where engagement could make a real impact. He and Jon talk about what organizing looks like in every day life, and how the most important activism is the kind you probably won't find on social media.
