Here are a few things I’ve had released in the last week or so. I have several more projects in the works that I think you all will be excited about - more on that later.
Only Revolutionary Class Struggle can Defeat Racial Capitalism
First off, we just released the latest Crawdads and Taters episode. I’m really excited to release this episode. We had a good time recording it, especially the part when Elizabeth Warren comes up. I could really use your help sharing this as Facebook algorithms are not favorable to podcasts. Here is the episode description:
In this second part of a two-part series on Critical Race Theory, Crawdads & Taters review the way CRT, like many once-radical US social movements, has been largely captured by neoliberalism and its funding institutions, stripping it of its original class politics and its revolutionary potential for broad-based political transformation. We also review popular anti-racist literature like Ibram X. Kendi's "How to be an Anti-Racist" and imagine what Critical Race Theory might have looked like today had it maintained a solid anti-capitalist analysis over the last several decades. Finally, we offer up the work of a few key movement leaders, as a way to uplift today's revolutionary voices in the anti-capitalist, anti-racist and abolitionist left.
Real Progressives - Nancy Pelosi Lies While the Working Class Dies
I just had this article published with Real Progressives, where I detail some of Nancy Pelosi’s latest lies regarding student debt and the eviction moratorium. I consider her to be one of the greatest enemies of progress today.
Real Progressives - Medicare For All, Not For Some
In this article for RP, I describe some of my experiences with the M4M4ALL March in Seattle and explain why a state based strategy is not the way to achieve a National Improved Medicare for All single payer system.
Due Dissidence - Don’t Mourn, Organize: How to Respond to Nina’s Defeat
Keaton over at Due Dissidence just republished this article, which you’ve probably already seen if you subscribe to this newsletter. It’s always nice to have my material available at other outlets and I appreciate the work Keaton does over there. I recommend checking out the rest of his site as well.
The Pineal Podcast - Solidarity with the Working Class
Josh invited me to guest on the Pineal Podcast during the spring, and we recorded this episode in June. It was just released a bit over a week ago and here it is in case you missed it. We talk about my experiences as a Bernie delegate, MMT, and why we need to end the capitalist system, among other things. Give it a listen!
Thanks for following me!
