Scott Galloway speaks with Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Julia Angwin and former White House senior advisor Ami Fields-Meyer to discuss their new book, On Courage. They explore what modern authoritarianism looks like, why it often advances gradually rather than through dramatic coups, and what ordinary people can do to resist it. They also debate the role of Big Tech, anonymous speech, coalition-building, and why small acts of courage can matter more than grand gestures.
