Howdy folks,
I am excited to announce that our next show will be a special edition. On Tues, Oct 15 at 12pm pacific, 3pm eastern I will be part of a collaborative webinar titled “Real Solutions to the Systemic Crisis”. This webinar will be participatory, with breakout rooms. It’s free, but space is limited and advance registration is required. Register here. Details below my signature.
Deep appreciation to my dear friend and comrade Shahid Buttar for guest hosting Redneck Gone Green last week. Shahid is a constitutional lawyer, DJ, MC, snowboard instructor, and former antiwar congressional candidate. He is also on substack, and you can subscribe to him by clicking here.
Shahid was joined by Stephen Semler, Co-Founder of the Security Policy Reform Institute. They discussed Israel's escalating genocide in Gaza, its expansion of Israeli state terrorism beyond Gaza,, the disturbing role of bipartisan corruption and militarism in Washington, the relationship between militarism and the climate catastrophe bringing chaos to America's southeast, and what this all means for voters making choices for the November election. If you missed it, you can watch it by clicking here.
Remember to register for next Tuesday’s webinar in lieu of our show
There are more exciting developments coming up for 2025, so stay tuned!
Onward to the world we deserve,
David Cobb (he/him)

Real Solutions to the Systemic Crisis
Date & Time
Oct 15, 2024 12:00 PM in Pacific Time (US and Canada)
Description
The latest data from the "Index of Systemic Trends" (The Democracy Collaborative, September 2024) confirms what we already know: despite changing political parties and economic cycles, key indicators of American wellbeing have been declining for decades. But there's hope.
Communities across America are already using solidarity economy approaches to create real change. Interventions such as public banking, worker ownership, public production of essentials, and community land stewardship point the way to the systemic change we so desperately need.
Join us for a presentation and discussion of the systemic crisis facing the United States and the solutions offered by solidarity economy approaches and institutions. Featuring speakers from The Democracy Collaborative, Resist & Build, US Solidarity Economy Network, People's Network for Land and Liberation, Co-op Dayton, and California Public Banking Alliance.
Don't just survive in a broken system. Learn how to change it.
Space is limited. Reserve your spot today.
