Reflections on Pluralism and Obama's Legacy
This chapter examines the challenges of fostering forbearance in a diverse society through the lens of American democracy and the U.S. Constitution. It critically analyzes Barack Obama's presidency, juxtaposing his aspirational rhetoric with the realities of social equity and healthcare issues, while also addressing the limitations of liberal responses to systemic inequality. The discussion highlights the need for a reevaluation of the liberal narrative in light of the rising populism represented by figures like Donald Trump.
