0:08 – In a year of a global pandemic, unprecedented wildfires, and historic protests against police violence and more, on top of all of that, in roughly a month and a half, US citizens face the most decisive presidential election of their lifetimes. In addition to the two primary parties, Green Party candidate Howie Hawkins is running and a new Movement for a People’s Party (or MPP) is gaining momentum. What does all of this mean for the future of US democracy? We speak with John Nichols (@NicholsUprising), National Affairs Correspondent for The Nation.
0:34 – Tomorrow, on September 19 there will be a Bay Area Cruise 4 Justice, against police violence and over-policing in black and brown communities. We speak to George Galvis, the co-founder and executive director of Communities United for Restorative Youth Justice (CURYJ). And with Marissa Barrera who is fighting for justice for her brother, Michael Barrera, who was killed by Woodland Police in 2017.
Event: Cruise 4 Justice
