In this talk, Calley Means reflects on a new political realignment and why it opened the door to conversations America has long avoided: children’s health, ultra-processed food, chronic disease, and the incentives that shape our healthcare system. He explains how a new coalition of voters created the leverage to challenge a system built around managing illness rather than preventing it.
Weaving together policy, culture, and lived experience, the talk argues that America’s health crisis cannot be solved through technocratic fixes alone. Instead, it calls for a broader cultural awakening that reexamines what we prioritize, how our institutions are structured, and what it means to care for children in a modern society.
