Democrats Deserted Working Poor: Bishop William Barber on Healthcare, Living Wages, Voting Rights
“Why is it that the issues that most of the public agrees with — healthcare, living wages, voting rights, democracy — why is it that those issues weren’t more up front?” We speak to Bishop William Barber about Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’s failed election campaigns, Donald Trump’s election as president and the urgent need to unite the poor and working class. Barber is the national co-chair of the Poor People’s Campaign, president and senior lecturer at Repairers of the Breach and a co-author of the book White Poverty: How Exposing Myths About Race and Class Can Reconstruct American Democracy. He urges the Democratic Party to recenter economic security and poverty alleviation in its platform and draws on historical setbacks for U.S. progressive policies to encourage voters to “get back up” and “continue to fight.”
"With the assistance of big corporate donors, Democrats out-fundraised their opponent by huge margins. After Biden’s victory four years ago, they also had a readymade template for how to defeat him — preaching ambitious social policies and activist government — but bafflingly opted to pursue a rerun of Clinton’s disastrous strategy instead."

Democrats Have Only Themselves to Blame
Kamala Harris supporters are already blaming a stupid electorate and an inclement economy for their historic defeat, writes Luke Savage. Maybe it had something to do with cosying up to war criminals and billionaires?

El pujolisme ha estat, històricament, mal analitzat, fins i tot per les esquerres. N'és un exemple el documental de David Trueba titulat 'La sagrada familia'
