Activist Class

Why is Seattle's Right coopting movement language? Is Jim Pugel a Zaddy, Daddy, or Father? Where are we at with Affirmative Action (i-1000) in WA state and how did we get here? How does the model minority myth fuel anti-blackness? Class is in session.

Why are Progressive Democrats quick to condemn Amazon’s influence but not willing to risk their own by endorsing the very candidates Amazon’s trying to keep out of office? Can the richest company on earth really buy America’s democracy? How are pro business PACs in Seattle spending Amazon's $1.45M money bomb? Class is in session. 

The Activist Class shares notes on the Seattle City Council races in districts 1-3. Can we trust Lisa Herbold? Is Tammy Morales progressive enough for the left? Can Egan Orion really dethrone Kshama Sawant? Class is in session. 

Before getting into districts 4-6 in the Seattle City Council races, The Activist Class talks #trailorgate. The class then discusses what it will take for DSA candidate Shaun Scott to upset Amazon backed candidate Alex Pedersen. Will Seattle see a majority progressive city council? Or will Amazon be able to spend enough money to stay tax free? Class is in session.
