Original Description

This month we celebrate Black August in memory of George Jackson and Black resistance. In this episode, we spoke with the executive editor of the Black Agenda Report, Glen Ford. We held a robust conversation with Mr. Ford about Bill Clinton, Obama, Malcolm X, criticizing our leaders in the public, the Democratic party, Kamala Harris, political prisoners, his ideas about defunding, and abolishing the police, and if we should call for community control of the police. We did not enter this episode with a specific myth but we concluded with the myth that Dem. Politics is Black Politics.
