While the nation falls deeper into a state of COVID apathy, yet another variant rears it’s highly infectious head to spread the virus for what could be another wave of lockdowns. With trust in institutions at an all time low and vaccines and mask wearing becoming even more partisan, will we ever see our way out of this pandemic? With both major political parties captured by big Pharma and the healthcare industry, how can we forge a pathway to Medicare for All? Could the proposed measure for single payer in California be a catalyst for the rest of the Nation? We’ll ask these questions and more.

Stuck in the house we’re gonna be pumping these out!! Anyway, we discuss on this episode the weaponized racist nature of calling COVID-19 the “Chinese Virus” martial law, and where viruses come from!   Artwork for this episode is by Rob Israel.  You can find and buy his art (and this can be t-shirt too) here: https://www.etsy.com/market/rob_israel   Naomi Klein, Coronavirus Shock Doctrine: https://www.democracynow.org/2020/3/19/naomi_klein_coronavirus_capitalism   Why are bat viruses so deadly? https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/02/200210144854.htm   Taiwan's fast response to Covid-19 https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2762689

  Episode 11 In this episode I was blessed enough to get former bank regulator, now financial director Nina Qualls-Mendoza, and Tonya Love District Director.  I can't lie, I was a bit disheartened by the results from this past Tuesday's primaries.  What I hated most was the narrative the Bernie Sanders doesn't connect with black voters, while Joe Biden, a man who has a HORRIBLE RECORD with the black community is the go to choice because he was VP under Obama.  Hearing that same story over and over again, on mainstream media, I know that the casual black voter might even start to believe. it. We often hear, "People want a return to normalcy".  What is "normalcy" under a Biden presidency; especially when he was a part of the administration that gave us Trump? We also discuss black women's role in leading radical movements.   Always, thank you guys so much for listening, if you haven't already become a patron and get all the bonus content and even more FREE STUFF!! Patreon Facebook Instagram Twitter YouTube  Adolph Reed,, "Liberals I do despise"“Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.” ― Martin Luther King Jr.

  Hello, and thank you again for tuning in.  WE'RE AT EPISODE NUMBER 10! For the month of March, we're going to be discussing criminal justice reform with a bunch of guests from the public defenders office, to historians, and of course prison abolitionists.  This week we have on luthier, and guitar tech Greg Day.  Greg works with everyone from Slayer, Faith No More, Rancid to Bitter Lake.  Greg is not just the man that helps us maintain our tone, he's one of the smartest, kindest people we know.  We share books, and thoughts on all things socialism, anarchism, and we are constantly giving our critique of capital.  So Greg was not too pleased when I told him to watch the new Netflix docuseries, "The Trial of Gabriel Fernandez".  In short, it's a six part series about the murder of an 8 year old boy by his mother and her boyfriend.  As the series progresses we see that breakdowns in the system led to the boy's untimely demise.  I wanted to use this story as a jumping off point for our criminal justice reform series.  Thank you again for listening, we truly appreciate you guys and your comments on these shows, if you like the content you're getting, please, please, please become a patron.  You get ALL the bonus content, plus Bitter Lake merch and special live streams.

Get Carla's Book here: https://carlakaplan.com/troublemaker-the-fierce-unruly-life-of-jessica-mitford.html   The second youngest of the famously beautiful—and brilliant—“Mitford Girls,” Jessica Mitford was brought up by an eccentric English family in the bucolic Cotswolds. She and her sisters were raised to marry well and reproduce their class. Five of them enthusiastically embraced that path and went on to lead glamorous lives that have been the subject of countless books and movies, with more on the way. And then there was Jessica...   Jessica—known as Decca—broke the Mitford mold. At the age of nineteen, she ran away from a world of wealth and privilege to fight fascism in the Spanish Civil War. She survived war; her husband, Esmond, did not, leaving her to raise their then-unborn child alone. Undaunted, Decca became an American Communist and, in mid-life, pioneered a witty and wildly popular style of writing which placed her at the heart of the social struggles of her day. A celebrity in the civil rights, free speech, antiwar, and prison abolition movements, she relentlessly pursued both fairness and joy, injecting humor into all her political work and encouraging the activists she influenced to do the same. She left her mark on celebrities too, including famed baby doctor Benjamin Spock and best friend Maya Angelou. Decca’s anti authoritarian irreverence had an impact that was broad and profound.   Check out our new bi-weekly series, "The Crisis Papers" here: https://www.patreon.com/bitterlakepresents/shop   Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out.
