College graduates used to lean right politically, but over the
past few decades, they have increasingly moved to the left.

Today, Noam Scheiber, the author of “Mutiny: The Rise and Revolt
of the College-Educated Working Class,” explains the economic
forces that have left many college grads deeply indebted,
underpaid and angry, and also how their unmet expectations are
reshaping class politics in America.

Guest: Noam Scheiber, a reporter for The New
York Times based in the Chicago area who focuses on white-collar
workers.

Background reading: College graduates feel betrayed, and their
anger goes far beyond the recent rise of unemployment and the
looming threat of artificial intelligence.
