Award-winning journalist Froma Harrop believes in America but doesn't view it through rose-colored glasses. While Americans value equality, opportunity and justice, they also value profit and tradition. The key to solving our country's and planet's most urgent problems, therefore, is almost always reasonable progress, not someone's idea of perfection.
Harrop dissects issues with straight talk and a fresh perspective, always pointing to the bigger picture and asking us to pay attention to what's really worth fighting for:
Democrats should've passed on the national obsession that was impeachment and gone for the prize: replacing President Donald Trump.
Feeding innovation is better than banning fossil fuels.
Time's up for mandatory high heels in the workplace, but the tide will only turn if the fashion world decides so, and if more women demand comfort in their footwear.
Read Harrop's takes on headlines from A to Z in this collection of her syndicated columns from 2019.
