Take a stand. That’s the theme of Joy Reid’s last episode of The ReidOut. The often eloquent Reid delivered a powerful message condemning fascism, marking the end of her recently canceled MSNBC show. The 56-year-old journalist used her opening segment to address the growing threat to democracy and urged viewers to reflect on how to respond to such a crisis.
“We begin tonight with what I think is the question when you are in the midst of a crisis, and specifically a crisis of democracy: How do you resist when fascism isn’t just coming, it’s already here?” Reid asked in a clip from the episode that quickly spread across social media. “What, if anything, can you do about it? For one thing, you can try to learn from history, from what people in this situation, in countries around the world and in America, have done before. As my friend Rachel Maddow always says, ‘History is here to help.’”\
