Open Classroom — Newsroom Confidential: Politics and Media 2023, NU Policy School

The Political Landscape

Where is the country headed as we approach the 2024 election—one of the most crucial in the nation’s history?

Can Democrats mobilize their supporters? Will Trump be hurt by his indictments? What are the crucial voting groups, and the crucial swing states, to watch? What will be the impact of younger voters?

Join us for a probing look at the political landscape with:

• Seth Harris, former top aide to President Biden and acting Secretary of Labor in the Obama administration, and currently a Senior Fellow at the Burnes Center for Social Change.

• Prof. Maria Elena Villar, chair of the Communications Studies department and an expert on Latino voters

The conversation will be led by Prof. Jill Abramson, former editor of the New York Times, Prof. Jonathan Kaufman, director of the School of Journalism, and Prof. Ted Landsmark of the School of Public Policy and Urban Affairs.

Sponsored by the Open Classroom and the Policy School with the School of Journalism and Media Innovation and the College of Arts, Media and Design at Northeastern University
