October 28: Talking NYC Mayoral Race with Peter Sterne + Third World Newsreel's JT Takagi
Update: 2025-10-31
Description
In the first part of this week's show we spoke with Peter Sterne of City & State about the state of the mayor's race with one week to election day and three days of early voting already completed.
Voter turnout in the first three days of early voting in the NYC mayoral race was greater than the turnout in all nine days of early voting in 2021. Older voters are leading this surge, buoying
the hopes of Andrew Cuomo and prompting concerned emails from frontrunner Zohran Mamdani's campaign to its supporters. On this week's Indypendent News Hour we spoke with Peter Sterne of City & State about the state of the race and whether Mamdani's supporters have cause to be alarmed.
In the second half of the show, we’ll heard from JT Takagi, director of Third World Newsreel, about an upcoming retrospective of some of the group’s most iconic work from the late 1960s and early 1970s – another era where young people’s dreams of forging a more just world crashed against a system that didn’t want to change.
