With Joe Biden’s new infrastructure bill the focal point of political discussion in the country, the people setting the narrative are conservative Democrats and conservative Republicans. Nomiki Konst opens today’s show by correcting the narrative and explaining why the bill is NOT, in fact, socialism. Then, Kenzo Shibata gives us an update on organizing in Chicago, and explains why charter schools are bad. For today’s panel, we have Rep. Chris Rabb and Arun Chaudhary. They discuss systemic and interconnected problems of white supremacy, imperialism, militarism, and patriarchy. Our panelists also talk about the state of mainstream media and how it influences the way we understand politics in the US.
