Bill Bartholomew reads from Lula da Silva’s 2002 Letter to the Brazilian People, then connects its message—an ambitious agenda paired with an open invitation to allies—to Providence’s current political moment.

He argues that David Morales can stay committed to affordability and rent stabilization while building productive relationships with skeptics and institutional partners. The episode explores the practical challenges of governing, including existing agreements and policing, and looks to New York and Boston for examples of broad coalition-building without abandoning core goals.
