This episode of The Dig is brought to you by our listeners who support us at patreon.com and by Descent Magazine. In a few days, I'll be posting part two, an interview conducted by guest host, Micah Utricht, on Chicago in Brandon Johnson's incredible victory there in the mayoral race. If you are feeling despaired and disconnected, I strongly encourage you to get involved in building power from the ground up. We pay well nothing and we overwhelmingly fund this podcast through your voluntary contributions. That's P A T R E O N dot com slash the dig.
Featuring Nikil Saval and Helen Gym on how the history of Philadelphia social movements brought Nikil into the state senate and has made Helen, a long-time public education organizer, a frontrunner in the mayoral race.
