Progressives must start resisting Donald Trump now
You can also find previous episodes on YouTube here.
We are just a few weeks away from the new Trump administration. So far I see little leadership from the Democratic Establishment to ready itself for a substantive opposition ready to work for the poor and middle-class against the forthcoming assault from the new government from hell. But you know what? Remember what I said last week. We want this resistance to be bottom up. Whether the Democratic Party or other opposition parties have erected systems or structures of collaboration, individually we can take the initiative. We must all, we will all get proactive and do what is needed carrying timid politicians kicking and screaming if we have to.
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
