With the midterms approaching, Suzi talks to Angela Gonzales-Torres, the democratic socialist running against ethics-challenged incumbent Jimmy Gomez in LA’s 34th Congressional District. They discuss her family’s experience with deportation, organizing against ICE raids, and the fight for housing, healthcare, and political representation free of corporate money.
Next, Vermont State Senator Tanya Vyhovsky returns from Ukraine with a firsthand account of intensifying Russian attacks and Ukrainians’ determination to resist. She examines Trump’s concessions to Putin — “blood money” that won’t lower American gas prices — and the challenges facing Ukraine’s left.
Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.
