Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

May 26, 2026: Park Slope Food Coop To Vote On Israel Boycott After 17 Years of Organizing
Q: For starters, can you just describe kind of how you expect the meeting to unfold tonight?
Kaminsky explains it will be an entirely remote vote with thousands of members registered to vote, and two votes will be held: a standard co-op rule and the 75% super-majority rule that governs boycott votes.
May 26, 2026: Socialist Assembly Candidate Conrad Blackburn: Harlem Is Done With Machine Politics
Q: How is your campaign organized and how can people get involved, and could you outline the district's contours for listeners who aren't familiar?
The campaign emphasizes a grassroots volunteer network, open to everyday residents, with a callback to the district's gerrymandered boundaries and the aim to mobilize renters and community members to push for tenants' rights, green housing, and education funding.
May 26, 2026: Socialist Assembly Candidate Conrad Blackburn: Harlem Is Done With Machine Politics
Q: Why do you identify as a Democratic socialist in this race, and how do you respond to billionaire-led opposition who may see that label as a red flag?
He argues that capitalists won't willingly relinquish power and that Democratic Socialism embodies returning power to the people, aligning with a campaign focused on grassroots organizing and anti-corruption, even in the face of substantial financial opposition.
May 26, 2026: Park Slope Food Coop Israel Boycott Vote, Conrad for Harlem & New Jersey Eyes on ICE
Q: What is the current situation at Delaney Hall, and how can listeners help?
Detainees are facing harsh conditions; there have been hunger strikes, and families are actively supporting detainees. Listeners are urged to donate, visit, and contact their representatives to oppose funding ICE and pressure for improvements or closure.
May 26, 2026: Park Slope Food Coop Israel Boycott Vote, Conrad for Harlem & New Jersey Eyes on ICE
Q: What are the key points of your campaign platform for Harlem, and how do you view corporate spending in this race?
The platform centers on tenants' rights, housing, progressive taxation to fund public services, and a bottom-up approach to power, while corporate PACs and big donors are spending heavily against the campaign to defend their interests.
