Moral Leadership

NPR

Published November 12, 2000 at 12:00 AM EST

The new president of the United States will be forced to govern without a clear mandate or a sympathetic Congress. Whoever he is, that person will have to call on his power of persuasion and courage of conviction - two of the qualities that define what Dr. Robert Coles calls Moral Leadership. Liane speaks with Dr. Coles, Professor of Psychiatry and Medical Humanities at the Harvard University Medical School and author of the new book, Lives of Moral Leadership. (6:30) { NOTE: Lives of Moral Leadership is published by Random House, ISBN # 0-375-50108-8}

Federal funding is gone.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

That means $2.1 million per year that Connecticut Public relied on to deliver you news, information, and entertainment programs you enjoyed is gone.

The future of public media is in your hands.

All donations are appreciated, but we ask in this moment you consider starting a monthly gift as a Sustainer to help replace what’s been lost.
