Increasing Right-Wing Violence Is Cause For Action and Organizing
In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Sputnik News journalist and correspondent Wyatt Reed to discuss the historic victory of Gustavo Petro and Francia Marquez in the Colombian presidential elections and the importance of this victory to the progressive movement in the country, what Petro's progressive vision means for Colombia as he becomes Colombia's first progressive president and how the progressive movement laid the groundwork for the success of his campaign, the corruption and massive economic catastrophe under the right-wing Colombian government that Petro campaigned against, and the hope that working and poor people in Colombia have for the future under Petro's government.
In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Nino Brown, an elementary school teacher and organizer with Reds In Ed and the Boston Jericho movement to discuss the second federally-recognized Juneteenth holiday and the real story behind Juneteenth, the non-existence of the order of absolute equality that was originally made in field order number three, the ongoing Black liberation movement fighting not only for the promise of equality but for liberation for Black people, and how the revolutionary spirit of Juneteenth lives on today.
Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Rachel Hu, organizer and co-host of the CovertAction Bulletin Podcast to discuss the poor people's campaign's assembly in Washington, DC and the growing consciousness for a socialist program that meets the needs of working and poor people instead of funding more war, a recent right-wing attempt by Patriot Front to attack a pride celebration in Idaho and the very serious threat of rising of fascist violence, and what a recent move by the Texas GOP to call for a referendum on Texas' secession from the US reveals about increasing right-wing violence and why the Democrats have been unable to present any substantial challenge to the rising tide of fascism.
