Journalists, politicians, authors and newsmakers from around the world come together at the Crosscut Ideas Festival to take a hard look at the people, policy and events that shape our lives.

A Third Party

Season 3 Episode 7 | 27m 52s | CC

Andrew Yang ran for presidency on a platform that included proposals for a universal basic income, ranked-choice voting and automatic voter registration. After dropping out of the presidential race, Yang founded the Forward Party, which aims to bring together people from across the political spectrum. Yang argues that the two-party system is broken and that we need a new way to do politics.
