Guy Kawasaki's Remarkable People

What does effective activism actually look like, and why does so much of it begin with simply listening? Charlie Euchner, author of Rules of Activism, explores the power of grassroots organizing, one-on-one conversations, focused agendas, and turning public gatherings into sustained action. He shares lessons from figures including Martin Luther King Jr., Bayard Rustin, Ella Baker, and Fannie Lou Hamer, along with the story of Marian Dixon, an unlikely activist who became a powerful community leader. Charlie also explains why social media can amplify a movement but cannot replace the human connections that make organizing work.

Jimmy Wales created Wikipedia, one of the most important knowledge resources in the world, and now he’s confronting a new challenge: what happens to trust in the age of AI? In this episode, Jimmy explores how Wikipedia is adapting to generative AI, why human judgment still matters, and how AI can both strengthen and undermine our relationship with information. He also shares the ideas behind his new book, The Seven Rules of Trust, including why empathy, logic, and authenticity form the foundation of trust. Jimmy and Guy discuss misinformation, the future of Wikipedia, freedom of expression, and why disagreement doesn’t have to destroy our ability to work together. Most of all, Jimmy makes the case for preserving what’s human in an increasingly automated world.--Guy Kawasaki is on a mission to make you remarkable.
