In this episode, we're joined by Peter Sunna (ex-Contentful, Commercetools), now leading product at Kognic, an annotation platform that helps cars “see” via camera & LiDAR for ADAS and autonomous driving. Peter shares why he downplays traditional roadmaps in favor of a company-wide “How We Win” operating system, aligning teams on target segment, differentiation, and the strategic power to compound. We dive into the automotive software shift, safety-critical AI, and how to build defensibility when AI keeps redefining what's feasible, sometimes in months. Peter explains how to keep Sales, Product, Marketing, and CS selling and building the same thing so strategy drives the plan, not a feature laundry list. Here are some of the key questions we address: How do you replace feature roadmaps with a "How We Win" system that aligns every team and still tells customers what matters next? What does differentiation look like in practice and which power are you compounding (process, network effects, brand, switching costs, etc.)? When you're early and have no moat, how do you use counter-positioning and when do you evolve to a more durable power? Depth vs. breadth: should you go deeper on a few use cases or widen to adjacent ones, and how do you decide? How do you sell a new workflow into enterprises (crossing the chasm) when existing org structures resist change? With AI rapidly changing what's feasible, how do you plan, defend your margins, and avoid being automated away?
We need to be honest about our nation's history - that we've always been a divided nation - if we're going to be able to strengthen and maximize the full power and potential of our nation. What's that nation we want to move towards? One dedicated to the proposition of equality. That's the clear, fresh vision that our guest today, Steve Phillips, writes about in his recent article in The Nation - an article that put in writing what we'd been thinking about - which is to say this: We're pretty tired of the barrage of viewpoints standing AGAINST what the Trump administration is doing to our country - the authoritarianism, the oppression, the broligarchy. We believe it is much more powerful to round out those views to include not just what we don't want, but importantly, what we are fighting for, and what we are aspiring to be. The proposition of equality. Of well-being for all. What to listen for: Recognizing the different nations within our country (i.e. facing our history) so we can articulate what we stand for and fight for what we want to see The fully thought-out case for why the Civil War never really ended - with excellent examples from history That we need to focus on the long game - by investing in level 5 leaders, building strong civic engagement organizations, developing detailed data-driven plans, and playing the long game About Steve: Steve Phillips is a national political leader, bestselling author, and columnist.

Steve Phillips, Ash-Lee Woodard Henderson, Maurice Mitchell, moderated by Lateefah Simon In 2024, the threat of authoritarianism is greater than ever before. Yet our nation also has the potential to become a genuine multiracial democracy. How can we help tip the scale? Steve Phillips is a national political leader, bestselling author, and columnist. He is the author of The New York Times bestseller Brown Is the New White. His latest book, How We Win the Civil War, charts the way forward for those who wish to build a multiracial democracy and rid our nation of white supremacy once and for all. . He will be in conversation with two veteran political organizers, Ash-Lee Henderson, Co-Executive Director of The Highlander Center, which serves as a catalyst for grassroots organizing and movement building in Appalachia and the South, with a background in fighting for workers, reproductive justice, LGBTQUIA+ folks, environmental justice, and more, and Maurice Mitchell, a visionary leader in the Movement for Black Lives, and National Director of the Working Families Party. Moderated by Lateefah Simon, this urgent conversation is the reframe that many of us have been hungering for, to move us from anxiety to action. These big-picture thinkers can help us leverage our ostensibly limited voting options into a visionary electoral strategy that can change the game.

On this episode of See How They Run, a wide-ranging conversation with Christina Greer, Steve Phillips, and Adolph Reed Jr.If there's one thing everyone knows about American politics, it's that there is no way for a Democrat to win the presidency without Black voters. That's one of the reasons why, as Joe Biden fights desperately to stay in the 2024 election, he's made an aggressive effort to shore up Black support. In recent days, Biden has spoken at Black churches, given interviews to Black radio hosts, and leaned on the powerful Congressional Black Caucus to help bolster his political defenses.But there are signs that Black voters may not be ready to turn out for Biden as fervently as he needs them to. in the past few months, polls have shown Black support for Biden slipping to levels Democrats have not seen in generations. So can Biden overcome doubts about his fitness, reverse these trends, and hold the White House? Should we even believe the polls? And are we in the middle of a historic shift in the relationship between Black voters and the Democratic Party?To discuss all of this, D.D. Guttenplan is joined by a powerhouse trio of guests: Christina Greer, Associate Professor of Political Science at Fordham University; Steve Phillips, political strategist, Nation contributor, and author most recently of How We Win the Civil War: Securing a Multiracial Democracy and Ending White Supremacy for Good; and Adolph Reed Jr., Nation columnist and professor emeritus of political science at the University of Pennsylvania.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

00:08 John Nichols, National Affairs Correspondent for The Nation Steve Phillips is founder of Democracy in Color, and author of How We Win the Civil War: Securing a Multiracial Democracy and Ending White Supremacy for Good (just re-released in a revised second edition) The post Guilty on all counts. What's next? appeared first on KPFA.
The 2024 presidential race is set as a rematch of 2020, and even though Donald Trump faces 91 federal and state felony charges, his grip on the Republican Party has never been stronger.Nevertheless, author and political thought leader Steve Phillips believes the new American majority, consisting of people of color plus progressive whites, will prevail.In fact, on the Lean to the Left podcast, Phillips contends that this coalition of people who want to see America become a multiracial democracy should result in Democrats keeping the White House, flipping the House, and holding the Senate, and thus defend the multiracial democracy from attacks by modern-day Confederates. "That's the majority of people in the country, and that majority is growing every day," says Phillips on the Lean to the Left podcast, "and that's the other aspect of what is driving Republican politics, is stoking fears around this changing composition. People can see it and they feel it in their bones that the nature of the country is going to change in terms of its racial composition."Phillips says the presidential elections are the closest thing America has to a national referendum, and "except for the 2004 election of Kerry versus Bush, the Democrats have won the popular vote in every single presidential election since 1992. So that further shows that the raw numbers are on the progressive side, which is why the Republicans on the right are so ferociously determined to try to suppress the vote."So, says Phillips, the author of the new edition of his book, "How We Win the Civil War," Republicans are doing everything they can -- just as they did in the years after the original Civil War -- to prevent people of color coming out to vote because that is the only way for the white power structure to remain intact.America already is in a second civil war, he says, adding that the January 6, 2021 MAGA attack on the U.S. Capitol was part of that. In “How We Win the Civil War,” Phillips analyzes the 2022 midterm elections – including why there was no Red Wave and why Stacey Abrams lost but Rev. Raphael Warnock won in Georgia, a topic he also addresses on the podcast. Democrats, he contends, must recognize that we're in a contest between democracy and white supremacy left unresolved after the Civil War, and, he says that Trump's entire agenda is focused on making America white again.His work serves as a roadmap towards securing a multiracial democracy and provides a stepping stone towards ending white supremacy for good, contends Phillips. He is a New York Times bestselling author, columnist, and the author of the New York Times and Washington Post bestselling “Brown Is the New White: How the Demographic Revolution Has Created a New American Majority.”Phillips also is the founder of Democracy in Color, a political media organization dedicated to race, politics, and the multicultural progressive New American Majority. He hosts “Democracy in Color with Steve Phillips,” a color-conscious podcast on politics, and is a regular columnist for The Nation and The Guardian.The updated paperback edition of "How We Win the Civil War," published on March 12, is available at Amazon and other major booksellers.Here are some questions we addressed with Phillips:Q. In your new book, you warn that the Confederates never stopped fighting the Civil War, that conservatives are taking full advantage of this reality, and that those in denial imperil our democracy. Is this election more about defending and preserving than anything else?Q. What is the way forward? How can those who want to make America a multiracial democracy prevail over those who cling to the idea that we are a fundamentally white nation?Q. How did Trump manage to become so powerful within the Republican Party, despite his many flaws that often run counter to traditional Republican beliefs?Q. Why would ANY person of color support Trump? We have a Black U.S. Senator – Tim Scott of South Carolina – who is one of his chief sycophants and apparently hopes to be Trump's vice presidential running-mate.Q. Trump is continuing his tirade against immigrants and even sabotaged what turned out to be a bipartisan immigration reform bill that would have helped end the crisis at the southern border. That's part of his Make America White Again agenda, right?Q. Do you believe that most Americans want to see a multiracial democracy, or do you believe that's a pipedream?Q. How is it that Stacy Abrams lost her bid for governor of Georgia, but Rev. Raphael Warnock won his Senate seat there?Q. In your book, you write that modern day conservatives, and many liberals, promote the idea that Black people are poor because they lack the necessary skills, training, or character to get good jobs or run businesses that can generate wealth. Your response to that?Q. Do you believe Democrats have been strong enough in refuting the Republican effort to overthrow the U.S. government? Why? What should they do?Q. What would be the consequence if Trump should defeat Biden and return to the presidency?Q. What should progressives and Democrats do to defeat Trump, hold the Senate majority and regain control of the House of Representatives?

Exploring Civility: A Weakness Or Bold Necessity?I find it interesting that some, when presented with the idea of confronting those of differing mindsets with curiosity rather than hostility, accuse those seeking civility of somehow being weak or cowardly. As someone who used to do my share of spreading toxicity, I can understand how this can happen. When someone "attacks" what we feel passionate about, it is almost human nature to "attack back". What if I were to tell you that "attacking back" is the easy road? There is in fact, a more bold and brave way to address our differences. Maybe you'd be interested in joining me in Exploring Civility: A Weakness Or Bold Necessity?Julian Adorney and Angel EduardoMy friends, and returning DTH guests, Angel Eduardo and Julian Adorney have collaborated to write a piece for the Quillette entitled "Civility Isn't Weakness - It's How We Win". Join Julian, Angel and me as we dive into this thought provoking piece regarding the push-back to civility, and how some view it as a weakness. What does it mean to battle our own nature and truly take the high road? For the record, THIS IS NOT a go-along to get-along strategy where we all must end up in the milk-toast middle singing "Kumbaya". Far from it. But "if who you're speaking with feels like you're attacking some fake version of who they are, or some horrible mischaracterization of who they are, they will likely just dig in their heels and fight back".If you have a genuine desire for a better and more productive discourse, this conversation with Julian Adorney and Angel Eduardo is one you certainly don't want to miss!Angel Eduardo on Twitter: https://twitter.com/StrangelEdweirdJulian Adorney on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Julian_LibertyQuillette on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Quillette/What have you done today to make your life a better life?

In a personal and moving conversation with Sharline, Steve shares the winding, yet connected roads that led to his first keynote speech at the City University of New York's School of Labor and Urban Studies' fifth commencement ceremony. Steve discusses the art and poetry that inspired his speech and the childhood memories that resurfaced as he wrote. In his advice to the graduates entering the workforce at one of the most critical times in our country's history, he shares key lessons from his time in political and labor movements to his time spent writing How We Win the Civil War. He also honors Susan's legacy and the friends they gained in their joint effort to make a difference in the world.

In his new book, Steve Phillips warns that the Confederates never stopped fighting the Civil War, that conservatives are taking full advantage of this reality, and that those in denial imperil our democracy. He charts the way forward in the post-Trump era, arguing that progressives must recognize the true nature of the fight we're in—an existential battle between those who wish to make America a multiracial democracy and those clinging to the concept that this is fundamentally a white nation. We also discuss other topics like Blacks for Trump, how the Democrat party became the home for social justice, CRT, and why people of color weren't surprised to find out that America still has a racism problem. Guest Bio:Steve Phillips is a national political leader, bestselling author, and columnist.

This week best-selling author Steve Phillips opens up about the very recent loss of his remarkable wife Susan Sandler and their shared goals on how to move America toward a multi-racial democracy. In the dedication to her of his new book, How We Win the Civil War, Steve writes, “The reality of cancer forces one to a more spirtual place of contemplating life, meaning, and legacy. That reflection has fueled my work on this book to try to make it a lasting legacy for both of us.” Steve notes that the post 2020 election coup “was not the first time a large percentage of American people chose whiteness over democracy in the wake of an election whose outcome they did not like.” He uses humor when he writes about the urgency of facing America's anti-democratic drift. “Imagine if Revere had instead ambled down the street saying, ‘We're going to invite the British to dinner and see if we can reach a bipartisan agreement.

Steve Phillips is the host of the Democracy in Color podcast and the author of How We Win the Civil War: Securing a Multiracial Democracy and Ending White Supremacy for Good. We start off a new year of civic engagement and fighting for democracy with a conversation about his political leadership, thought leadership, and coalition building. The Confederate Battle plan of never giving an inch, ruthlessly rewriting the rules, distorting public opinion, silently sanctioning terrorism, and playing the long game has been present in every period of US history. Through organizing and civic participation, in the places that held people in slavery, the country is being transformed. The new American majority and the majority of eligible voters are people of color and progressive whites. We have the potential power to redraw the social contract.

It's Election Day 2022, and we don't think it's an understatement to say that this is the most important election that those of us who have the privilege to vote in will be voting in - because this election may determine if you or I even get to be able to vote in the next election.

But their persistence to remain silent and avoid discomfort will cost us our democracy.-Democrats, for their part, are hesitant and fearful of explicitly refuting these attacks for fear of losing support among white voters.-Democrats and progressives must recognize the true nature of our political reality.The civil war never ended. For 157 years, conservatives have used the same confederate battle plan to block efforts to foster a more equitable society.More on "How We Win The Civil War"In HOW WE WIN THE CIVIL WAR, Steve Phillips charts the way forward for progressives and people of color to lead the way to end this civil war, arguing that Democrats, in particular, must recognize the urgency of the moment we're in as well as the nature of the fight we're in—a contest between democracy and white supremacy left unresolved after the original Civil War.Phillips also shines a light on the people, places, and organizations that have recently defeated the modern-day Confederates and made meaningful progress towards making America a multiracial, multicultural democracy.Conventional wisdom about how Democrats win elections in the U.S. is wrong. Pursuing white swing voters is no longer a path to victory for Democrats and progressives because of permanent demographic changes across the country. Electoral victories in Georgia, Arizona, and Virginia are proof of that fact.Support the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Let's be honest: there is no additional federal climate action coming anytime soon in the United States unless Democrats hold majorities in both houses of Congress with a Democratic president in the White House. The Republican Party still has made no substantial effort on climate action. So, this episode is a partisan one. With less than a month to go before the crucial 2022 midterm elections, we ask a critical questions - can Democrats hold on to power in Congress? To help answer that question are two political commentators and podcasters we love. First, Brian Tyler Cohen, host of No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen, joins to unpacks the stakes of the upcoming election and how progressive and mainstream media need to respond to threats to democracy. Then, Steve Pierson, host of How We Win, joins the show to discuss how progressives rally and organize to earn more electoral victories at this critical moment.

For the first episode of our special How We Win series, award-winning author and historian Mae Ngai places the existential crisis of our time into historical context as she highlights the pervasive nature of the question: who gets to be an American and who is deserving of dignity and equality? Our conversation with Mae lays the foundation for our series' deep dive into the parallels between our present moment and the not-so-distant past. She reveals the history of a partnership between the South and West to perpetuate white supremacy, and describes just how intertwined the “Chinese Question” and the “Negro Question” have been since the founding of America.
