America – and the global Left – has a new political hero: a 33-year-old Ugandan-born New Yorker called Zohran Mamdani. How did a former rapper become one of the most prominent voices in progressive politics in just a few short weeks? Emily Tamkin, in DC, is joined by Rohan Venkat to discuss Mamdani's rise, whether it offers a playbook for anti-Trump politics, or whether this is just another example of America's largest metropolis being out of sync with the country as a whole.
