Reporting on Abby Hoffman to Military Action Against Iran with Lucian Truscott IV

Lucian K. Truscott IV, journalist, author, and screenwriter, joins Deepak Puri, CEO of The Democracy Labs, to shine a light on the challenges of writing about and reporting on current events, political voices, and cultural trends. Lucian started working for the Village Voice while still a cadet at West Point in the 1960s and comes from a long line of military leaders and political figures. He is currently covering politics on his Substack newsletter, Lucian Truscott. Note that this interview was recorded a few days before the US dropped bombs on Iran.

 Deepak and Lucian talk about:

• Interviewing Abby Hoffman for Life Magazine and covering the Stonewall Riots
• Current and potential US military action against Iran
• How Lucian's experience as a graduate of West Point informs his view of the consequences of US involvement in conflicts
• His concern about hasty and ill-advised military and political decisions
