Podcast: Play in new window
I smell revolution in the air. It comes with the American Spring and the rebirth of the newly awakened Occupy movement. How apropos that people will protest around the world on May Day! Not only is it International Workers Day, but mayday is the internationally recognized signal of distress.
We’ll just scratch the surface of the May 1st General Strike (#M1GS) actions happening around the US today with a few activists. Robert, aka @rousseau_ist of the Occupied News Network will get us started from McPherson Square in Washington DC. We’ll head up to NYC to talk with Linda Busch Somach (@lippylulumama) who runs the OccupyEarth livestream channel, and then head west to San Francisco to speak with @PunkBoyinSF (punkboyinsf.org).
It’s Tuesday, that means a visit from The Political Carnival‘s GottaLaff to talk about these stories and more:
