Local political involvement
You can also find previous episodes on YouTube here.
Last week Humble ISD went a step too far. They tentatively hired a very controversial superintendent to run the district. Parents did not like it. Parents protested and empowered themselves to do something about it.
Today, our featured guest will be David Cobb, spokesperson and co-founder of Move to Amend. He has been with us several times. Most importantly he is the embodiment of local political involvement with the migration to national political action that benefits the masses. He has ran for both Texas Attorney General and President, at different times on the Green Party ticket.
But before I get into the meat of the show, I want to thank another donor to KPFT 90.1 FM and to Politics Done Right last week.
- Barbara Johnston from Houston, Texas made a generous and needed online contribution in the name of Politics Done Right.
Before I get to the program, I want to remind all our listeners that KPFT is a bastion of intelligent voices and programs. As a political activist, my favorites are
- The Monitor with Mark Bebawi on Mondays at 7:00 PM
- ThinkWing Radio with Mike Honig on Mondays at 9:00 PM
- Partisan Gridlock with Geoff Berg on Fridays at 3:00 PM
- Jazz Latino, AfroCuban Latin Jazz at its very best hosted by Juan Flores on Mondays at 10:00 PM
- Asamblea Popular de Houston, Thursday 7 PM on HD3. Today Wilson Juarez will be speaking about the Free Trade impact on immigration.
