Our recording studio was graced by the presence of none other than Dianne Morales! As our guest for episode 27, Dianne anchored a conversation about principles, histories and stories, and revolution.
Dianne touches upon her political and personal wisdom in the midst of discussing her life and background, her run for mayor of NYC in 2021, and the pathways she continues to carve towards liberation. Especially in Puerto Rico!
Dianne describes having a drive for seeing better for her community since she was a child and we hear about how that shaped the person she is today, how her activism shaped her political career.
We discuss the long rifle carrying elephants in the subway - Kathy Hochul deploying 750 national guard and Eric Adams competing by deploying even more NYPD. We’re not sure what they’re going to do besides exactly what the existing officers already do: nothing but violate rights and safety of New Yorkers.
Finally, we break down recent violence committed by members of the protest community, a group supposedly committed to protestor safety. We touch on why and how community response to this videotaped attack has been lacking.
