1/8/21 - #FemFriday - w/ Jane McAlevey + Francesca Fiorentini

Many Americans are appalled after the events of this week. It is our job now to convert that energy into support for the work that needs to be done. Later, labor organizer Jane McAlevey talks how to build working-class power to pressure a Biden administration and secure wins for progressives. And then, Francesca Fiorentini joins us to talk about what happens next. How can progressives build power in the Democratic Party, and what do Republicans need to do to take accountability for the white nationalism that they have allowed to fester in their party? http://www.patreon.com/thenomikishow » We need your help to keep providing free videos!
