Description
In this episode, we talk with muckraker journalist and Kenosha kid Steve Horn (@steveahorn) from the Real News Network (@TheRealNews) about Kenosha, WI and California climate politics. We start with Kenosha's history of deindustrialization and surburbanization since the auto giant Chrysler left the city in the late 1980s, and then get into the current politics around the police shooting of Jacob Blake, the eruption of protests in Kenosha and the subsequent shooting of unarmed protestors by teenage racist militia member Kyle Rittenhouse. We also discuss Steve's beat of climate politics and talk about inmate firefighters and the politics of oil and gas in California's capital Sacramento.
Steve Horn is a San Diego-based climate reporter and producer for the Real News Network. Also a freelance investigative reporter, his work has appeared in The Intercept, The Guardian, and Al Jazeera America. His research and work has been cited by the New York Times, Bloomberg, Los Angeles Times, and other books and governmental publications.
