Scrappy Tax Day | Your Tax Dollars at Work. Lockheed Martin, "The Grapes of Wrath" and O.J.'s Legacy (G&R 285)
Manage episode 412449072 series 3240071
In our scrappy Tax Day episode, we get right down to it. We get into the anniversary of the publishing of "The Grapes of Wrath" and its significance on America and the American Left. We discuss how your tax dollars are subsidizing war profiteers like Lockheed Martin and keeping the war effort in Gaza going while paying for healthcare and public education in Israel. (Meanwhile America's masses are left to fend for themselves.) Scott also talks about a recent direct action at a Lockheed Martin facility in Sunnyvale, CA and the violence perpetrated by the company's employees when they were blocked from parking their cars in the company parking lot. We also discuss O.J. Simpson's legacy on race and politics in America, and NPR's "liberal bias" (and its discontents). All this and your weekly dose of radical history. -------------------------------------- Outro- "Hard to be Humble" by Mac Davis 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/UuQVgNP5) 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.
