Cornel West's Candidacy with Margaret Kimberly
Episode 3 of Redneck Gone Green
Howdy!
This week's show will be a conversation with Margaret Kimberley, Executive Editor of Black Agenda Report. You can watch live on Tuesday, Aug 8th at 3pm pacific, 4pm mountain, 5pm central, 6pm eastern by visiting our Youtube channel here or watch us on Rumble.
Margaret and I will be discussing the Presidential campaign of Dr. Cornel West.
For those who want a deep dive on the subject, here is a link to an Open Letter to the Movement from the Green Eco-Socialist Network’s endorsement of the West campaign.
Trump got indicted– for the third time. Although that is a serious and necessary response to the attempted coup, I don’t think anyone reading this message believes a legal response is sufficient to address rising Fascism.
With that context, it is my pleasure to share the link to last week's podcast of “Redneck Gone Green.” It was an interview with Jerome Scott of the League of Revolutionaries for a New America discussing the topic of “Non-Reformist Reforms.” Click here to view it.

Continuing the dis:ussion from today's webinar, as a climate scientist and ecosocialist I am sharing the following.
This is what we will get if Trump/Republicans prevail in 2025:
https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jul/27/project-2025-dismantle-us-climate-policy- next-republican-president
‘Project 2025’: plan to dismantle US climate policy for next Republican president
Will the Green Party act to prevent this catastrophic result or pretend that whether Biden or Trump is elected is of no importance to our future, to the future of the world’s children?
Will Cornel West and the Green Party promote the defeat of the white supremacist climate denialist neofascist Republican Party in 2024, while critiquing the neoliberal/imperialist agenda of the Democratic Party leadership?
Will Cornel West and his campaign share the consequences of voting in each state depending on the electoral college impact on whether Biden or Trump is elected ?
Will we go one or two steps forward or 100 steps back in 2024?
As Paolo Freire put it “what can we do now in order to be able to do tomorrow what we are unable to do today”.

P.S. Our only chance for realizing self-determination for my community in the form of DC Statehood is if Democrats win in 2024, given the fact that our first two Senators will likely be Democrats. The best Democrat on the DC Council is Janees Lewis George, a DSA member who represents my Ward, Ward 4. I will support her as one of the Senators.
