Vaya Con Muñoz 4.30.22

In Vaya Con Muñoz

This week Nathaniel Waring hosts and is joined by Kate Albright-Hanna in a outlandish discussion of reverse colonialism, and how it could get us back to a more nature based way of living; whether the human race is redeemable, and if we are if we’ll get our act together in time to save so many species that are in danger of extinction; how capitalism and colonialism – as well as globalization – has pushed the worst of us into positions of power; the possibility of taking over the Massachusetts republican party, and how it might be easier than trying to reform the Democratic party here in the commonwealth; why we both became disillusioned with our local Democratic Socialist of America chapter, and what about leftist organizations make it hard to do electoral work; and why the Right seems to have more “man”power when it comes to organizing, and why that might be more like “woman”power.
