Barack Obama praises the 'power of pluralism' while some Democrats try to pass the torch. In the weeks following Vice President Kamala Harris' election defeat, former U.S. President Barack Obama has largely remained silent. However, on Thursday, he urged a new generation of American leaders to engage in dialogue with those they disagree with, as quoted in a report by Reuters.
The former president expressed his conviction that a renewed dedication to pluralist principles was necessary to secure democracy's survival during a speech at a Democracy Forum organised by his foundation.
The alternative is what we've witnessed in the US and many other democracies across the world: not only more deadlock but also a greater willingness on the part of politicians and their supporters to flout democratic norms and do whatever it takes to achieve their goals.
Obama spoke to thousands of people in person and virtually about the power of pluralism during a highly divisive period in American history and a troubling one for Democrats as Republican Donald Trump takes the White House again.
