Description
Scott and Bob get down and dirty about the rise and fall of liberalism. We kick off with the most recent political and economic turns in the COVID19 crisis (and how ALL the politicians are to blame.)
Then we discuss peak liberalism with LBJ and the Great Society. And in response to the reformist moment in the 1960's, the poor people's movements that emerged on the left including Students for Democratic Society, the Big Lebowski and the Port Huron Statement (not the compromised 2nd draft), Martin Luther King Jr. and the Poor Peoples' Campaign.i
