The Capitalist Healthcare System Commits Social Murder of Black People
In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Cheryl Labash, co-chair of the National Network on Cuba to discuss the anniversary of the July 11th protests in Cuba and how the US attempted to exploit the conditions imposed by its blockade to overthrow the Cuban government, why the US initially imposed the blockade and the effects of the sixty-year-long blockade has had on the Cuban people, and the lies presented about Cuba disseminated by the US to drum up opposition to the Cuban government.
In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by to discuss Kevin Kamps, Radioactive Waste Watchdog at Beyond to discuss a new alarmist PSA released by New York City instructing New Yorkers of what to do during a nuclear attack, the anniversary of the Trinity bomb test and the Church Rock uranium mill spill which devasted the health of communities that lived downstream and downwind, how the effects of these tests and mining disproportionately impact communities of color, and a district court in Japan recognizing the damages of the Fukushima nuclear disaster and punishing executives for it by ordering payments to shareholders rather than victims of the disaster.
Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie discuss the case of a kidney patient who was beaten by hospital guards while he was searching for his car and what it exposes about the nexus of the American healthcare system and racist police terror, the social murder of Black people in the healthcare system and beyond, and what it will take to bring about a movement of the poor and working people to demand a systemic change.
