Over 3,000 prominent scientists, musicians, religious leaders, intellectuals, artists, actors, and others signed on to a full page ad in the January 4 New York Times, with the bold letters, “NO! In the name of humanity, we REFUSE to accept a fascist America.” Millions of Americans are of course frightened of the new regime, so what can we do? Make noise wherever you are, be creative on Inauguration day and beyond. One of the signers, jazz musician Ted Sirota talks with host Burt Cohen why we can’t wait to see what happens and instead must initiate action to protect democracy.
