This Week:   Sunsara Taylor: What's Needed to Stop this Fascist Regime, and Are You Willing to Follow Your Convictions... All the Way? Sunsara Taylor, writer for RevCom.us/Revolution newspaper, and founding member of RefuseFascism.org, joins us on the eve of nationwide protests July 7: Take to the streets in cities and towns nationwide TO  DEMAND: This Nightmare Must End: The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go! We'll talk about what's been happening in the world recently, the horrors and deadly threats carried out against immigrants, women, Muslims, oppressed nationalities -- against humanity and the planet. We'll talk about the need for the people to stand up against the regime, to step into and step up the effort to put a halt to the rapidly consolidating fascist system of rule -- why it's necessary, and why it's possible to end this nightmare, and what people should be doing now. In order to get to where we need to be, we encourage people to share their questions and comments. You can call in during the show, or post your messages on Facebook or Twitter.  Into the Streets!    From Refuse Fascism:   Immigrants and refugees terrorized, mass detention camps, thousands of children still separated from parents… The Supreme Court on the verge of a fascist majority for generations… Demonstrate Saturday July 7 In Los Angeles:  4 PM - Meet at MacArthur Park Red Line Station on Alvarado between Wilshire & 7th Take to the streets in cities and towns nationwide TO  DEMAND: This Nightmare Must End: The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go! Find a protest in your area and Pledge to march on July 7 Children torn from parents… concentration camps for tens or hundreds of thousands… threats to bypass judicial process… The assault on immigrants is the linchpin and battering ram of a whole fascist program: * The Muslim Ban. * White supremacy and terror. * Environmental deregulation as the planet burns. * Open misogyny and theocratic restrictions on abortion and even birth control. * Stripping away rights recently won by LGBTQ people. * 8 million on the verge of starvation in Yemen due to U.S. backed war. * Threats of nuclear annihilation * A thoroughly fascist Trump/Pence Supreme Court for generations. This is an American Fascism: “Trump/Pence regime’s ‘Make America Great Again’ is a 21stcentury fascist program of Manifest Destiny – ‘America First’ – wrapped in the flag and Mike Pence’s Bible taken literally, with a program of white supremacy, misogyny, and xenophobia.” ENOUGH.
