Description
No sleep til Brooklyn! This week, Scott joined the hipster Brooklyn left and is rolling through the mean streets of New York for UN Climate
Week.
On Thursday, there was a mass blockade of Citibank’s headquarters over their funding of the climate crisis. Hundreds of Citi employees forced to were wait on the street before returning to work and torching the planet. Sunday is the mass march to “End Fossil Fuels.” And more climate direct action to follow.
We discussed the climate crisis, what’s happening and who’s responsible.
We also talked about the recent story in The NY Times about one of JFK’s secret service detail talking about placing the “magic bullet” on the gurney at Parkland Hospital on November 22, 1963.
Bob also told us about his interview with Noam Chomsky on "Master Class."
All this and your weekly dose of radical history.
