AMEN LORD ELOHIM, DELIVER
SOON YOUR CHOSEN CHILDREN OF ISRAEL 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
How exactly did Bernie Sanders ignore race during his campaign? He literally spoke about racism & racial justice.
How can you steal something that never belonged to you? The Indigenous folks have always had a symbiotic relationship…in other words, coexistence with the land. Indigenous peoples of the US cared for Mother Earth and were with the land before any immigration started. Colonizers (tyrannical immigrants) from Europe decided they somehow had the right to take something that never belonged to anyone in the first place. Rape, genocide, torture, murder, foreign diseases, etc. is what colonized decided was okay because apparently it's cool to be blasphemous and act like you're a deity of some kind. Narcissism creating violence of the most deadly kinds.
Pure and simple, there were only one cake, if we share with the minorities then the cake will only be half to share or even less, but if we don't share with any and all minorities, then we have the cake all by ourselves. It all comes down to greedy, inhuman and barbaric mentality of the white supremacism. Period. The only vehicle to reverse the systemically course is to united all races fighting back with union, and elected the socialist to the congressional seats changing the system.
Excellent guest
Indeed! this is the best real historical data I ever heard, thanks for giving us the true story.
really brilliant on the failure of Reconstruction because we were a racist, settler state.
Excellent, informative show!
that was outstanding
BLACKS Demand Slavery REPARATIONS Money From AMERICA…Stop The Fake B,S,
I hate commentators / hosts who constantly derail a good, well formed narrative..
Starting at 4:50 on the causes of The Civil War. I'm re-reading Ha-Joon Chang's, 'Bad Samaritans', and found a passage last night, which outlined exactly what Mr. Fletcher is saying. Co-inkidink! Knock on wood etc.
Excellent interview. Very profound.
Fletcher is describing the real Doughnut Economics- the hollowing-out of urban economies.
Enlightening. Thank you, gentlemen
I could understand if Steiner thought that Bernie Sanders did not cover race issues enough, but to say that he avoided race is disingenuous. Bernie Sanders did not pander and he tied in race to the policies he was for when it was appropriate. Bernie should do more Identity Politics, and by ID politics I mean things like institutional Racism and not things like "First Jewish President" (which is really tokenism).
The last 5 minutes or so were the most important. We need to unite all of the working class and tackle inequality together, Black, White, Chicano, and Asian.
The African and Native American history talk was very interesting along with the Northern Mexico part.
Great interview. The point that the issues the Baby Boomers had fought for were now secure was spot-on. As a boomer myself the issue of abortion rights, civil rights, women's rights, was in my mind a done deal but here we are again 50 years later fighting for the same things and a lot more.
Nice show missing some important topics but close. White backlash is a myth
Good show
