Rick Perlstein

My politics of optimism and hope still casts its lot with the Democrats - in the optimistic hope that the dying embers of its status as the party of our better angels, one that took risks for social justice, can still be fanned into a flame. But I'm an old man, born in 1969.

Louis Leterrier

And Americans realized that native people are still here, that they have a moral standing, a legal standing. From that, our own people began to sense the pride.
