Cory Booker is a U.S. Senator from New Jersey, a former Democratic Presidential candidate, a former mayor of Newark, an attorney, and a lifelong fighter for civil rights. He began his political career in 1998 when he was elected to the Municipal Council of Newark, after launching a nonprofit organization to provide legal help to low-income families and tenants. In 2006, he was elected mayor of Newark, where he served until 2013, when he moved on to the U.S. Senate. Cory is the first Black U.S. Senator from New Jersey and has been consistently advocating for racial and economic justice since, proposing and passing legislation to reform the criminal justice system, end mass incarceration, reduce wealth inequality, combat climate change, and promote equitable access to healthy food and affordable health care. And Cory has made compassion the cornerstone of all of this work. In 2016, he published a book called "United: Thoughts on Finding Common Ground and Advancing the Common Good." When he was a Democratic candidate in the 2020 presidential race, he campaigned on love: “We are at our best when we give the ultimate sacrifice of putting other people, putting the country, putting our communities ahead of ourselves,” he said. “If that's not love, I don't know what is.”

The U.S. Senator. From merely tolerating each other to manifesting love. “Hope confronts.” Self-care in a world “so elegantly designed to distract you.” Making your bed as a spiritual practice. “We’re all more fragile than we let on.” We don’t really reward or allow our politicians, good or bad, to be searching, or to change their minds and grow — to admit their human frailty. So it’s surprising to hear Cory Booker say that the best thing that’s happened to him is “being broken, time and time again.” He’s taken flack for talking about politics as “manifesting love.” He speaks with Krista about the inadequacy of tolerance, strengthening the “muscle” of hope, and making your bed as a spiritual practice. Cory Booker is a senator for New Jersey and the former mayor of Newark. He serves the U.S. Senate committees on Foreign Relations, Environment and Public Works, the Judiciary, and Small Business and Entrepreneurship. He was a varsity football player for Stanford University and a Rhodes Scholar. He’s the author of “United: Thoughts on Finding Common Ground and Advancing the Common Good.”

Cory Booker (@corybooker) is an American politician and the junior United States Senator from New Jersey. I generally have an allergy to politics, but Cory's story is endlessly fascinating (e.g., he's faced down death threats from gangs, run into burning buildings, and much more), and we have a few years of history together. We cover a lot in this wide-ranging catch-up conversation, including his diet, lessons from early mentors and athletics, routines, books that have had an impact, learning how to "street fight" in New Jersey after receiving a Rhodes Scholarship, and much more. Cory began his political career as a city councilor from 1998 to 2002 in Newark, New Jersey's largest city. He later served as mayor of Newark, which under his leadership entered its biggest period of economic growth since the 1960s -- the first new downtown hotels were constructed in forty years, the first new office towers in twenty. He then won the Senate Democratic primary in August of 2013, and then won the general election on October 16, 2013, becoming the first African-American U.S. Senator from New Jersey. Cory is also the author of The New York Times bestseller United: Thoughts on Finding Common Ground and Advancing the Common Good. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!

Former Permanent Secretary to HM Treasury, Sir Douglas Wass explores the concept of authority in his series 'Government and the Governed'. In his first Reith Lecture entitled 'United Thoughts and Counsels', Sir Douglas Wass discusses what we mean by 'government'. Are we referring to the system, to the component parts of the political and administrative machinery? Or do we mean the policies which governments try to follow? He questions whether it is right to equate good government with prosperity and bad government with poverty.
