A conversation about the government and corporate class campaigns to use the COVID moment to privatize or destroy our most critical public services: The US Postal Service, public K-12, and higher education, public hospitals, the Veterans Affairs health services, and more. We are joined by postal worker organizer, Charles Zlatkin, New York Labor Communications Council, as well as Clarissa Eaton on public higher education in Massachusetts.
The show covered a lot of ground. Our host and guests called attention to may different sources of information. We list the links below in their “raw form” but will be updating them presently to make it more user-friendly:
