In a free-wheeling discussion Scott and Bob and friend and frequent G&R guest Clayton Lust, a professor of history as several Houston-area community colleges, talked about the campus protests of the 1960s, especially at Columbia in 1968, their meaning, their consequences and their tactics. All of us have written and/or taught about U.S. radical protests and the 1960s. We then pivoted to a conversation about today's campus protests against the U.S.-sponsored and -subsidized slaughters in Gaza and the huge impact they've had in shifting public opinion and giving hope in a bleak time. We also talked about the importance of communicating the idea that this is a bipartisan genocide, with Democrats taking the lead, and how the Democrat embrace of cops in 2020 and their rejection at defunding or even reforming police has led to this moment because the police will attack anyone who stands in the way of the ruling class. ----------------------------- Outro- "We Can Be Together" by Jefferson Airplane Follow Green and Red// +G&R Linktree: ⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast⁠⁠⁠ +Our rad website: ⁠⁠⁠https://greenandredpodcast.org/⁠⁠⁠ +We're part of the Labor Podcast Network: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.laborradionetwork.org/⁠⁠ + Join our Discord community (https://discord.gg/PcExWRe3) Support the Green and Red Podcast// +Become a Patron at https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast +Or make a one time donation here: ⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/DonateGandR⁠⁠⁠ This is a Green and Red Podcast (@PodcastGreenRed) production.
