Read FIGHTING OLIGARCHY HERE: https://www.routledge.com/Fig.../Derber/p/book/9781041119975
This book offers a new analysis of why Trump’s Far Right populism helped him win the Presidency twice, and how it enshrined a corporate establishment that he claimed to run against. Charles Derber presents a counter history of positive left populism and argues that populist parties gain power in eras of hard times for working people while mainstream parties lose voter support as they defend the existing system.

Read Touré's piece in Current Affairs here: https://www.currentaffairs.org/.../sinners-offers-a-false...
Sinners is up for a record 16 Oscars and even it doesn't take home a record amount of statues it still, for some marks massive advancement in Black filmmaking. Ryan Coogler directs not arthouse films, but Hollywood blockbusters. Is representation now complete in process of Black assimilation? Is we free now?
What does Sinners say about Black entrepreneurial uplift?
Is this just simply a popcorn movie and us uppity negroes are making a big deal out of it?
We'll discuss.

The hot new discourse on the street is that we are living under the 'Epstein Regime'. Kuba, Stefan and Quinn are here to try and work out what that could possibly mean, and whether it's good for anything.

You've seen him on the show before, you've read his articles in magazines like Metal Hammer, and of course, if you clicked here, you know his guitar work and music writing skills in his band God Forbid, but you do you know how he feels on the state of the world?
Join Doc and J. as two musicians wax poetic on the state of everything from Billy Corgan's rock n' roll CIA conspiracy, ICE raids, and the war in Iran.
