We speak with long-time activist and union organizer John Reimann about the plight of essential workers who are dealing with unsafe conditions in the middle of this pandemic. He talks to us about the many ways in which the corona virus (Covid 19) is being spread in the name of profit. He talks in detail about how large scale factory farming is being under reported in the way in which its practices have led to Covid 19 infections.

 

Also we speak with artist Justin Gomez and organizer Nakenya Allen about the on going racial drama that is unfolding in the city of Martinez. A lot has happened since a Black Lives Matter mural was defaced resulting in the city garnering negative nationwide attention. This is the follow up.
