Leftist responses to the current moment range from rejecting engaging the state at all to grudgingly accepting centrist Democrats as a lesser evil. In an interview between LBS’s Dayvon Love and Lawrence Grandpre, Love urges the Left to intentionally chart a middle course. Using examples from concrete legislative victories in Maryland, he advocates for intentionally delivering on concert improvements to quality of life for Black masses as a way to build a base for more progressive reforms, while continually expanding the political terrain by pushing radical demands. Rather than this being a typical reformist path, Dayvon concludes by explaining the role of strategic engagement with 3rd party politics can have the put pressure on Democrats to deliver or face real material consequences, using Andy Ellis’s potential Green Party run for governor in Maryland in 2026 as an example.
