The guest host for today's show is Brad Bannon. Brad runs Bannon Communications Research, a polling, message development and media firm which helps labor unions, progressive issue groups and Democratic candidates win public affairs and political campaigns. His new show, 'Deadline D.C. with Brad Bannon,' airs every Monday from 3-4pm ET.
Brad is first joined by Jeneé Osterheldt, a culture columnist who covers identity and social justice through the lens of culture and the arts. Sometimes this means writing about being Black at Art Basel. In 2020 it means exploring both the pandemic of coronavirus and America's original pandemic: racism.
She joined the Globe as a culture writer in 2018. A graduate of Norfolk State University, Osterheldt was a 2017 Nieman Fellow at Harvard, where her studies focused on the intersection of art and justice. She previously worked as a Kansas City Star culture columnist.
Jeneé 's Twitter handle is @SincerelyJenee.
Brad and Jeneé discuss her latest piece for the Boston Globe, titled "It’s bigger than buildings. America is burning." (Link here: https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/05/29/nation/its-bigger-than-buildings-american-is-burning/)
During the second half of the show, Brad leads a political round-table with Tim Zenk and Mark Grimaldi. The roundtable discusses the impact of racial conflict on Joe Biden choosing his running mate, as well as Biden's increased public visibility during the COVID-19 pandemic and the protests in response to the police killing of George Floyd.
Tim is a Principle at 'Molecule,' a business and public affairs company, a former Democratic staffer, and a well known renewable energy expert. His Twitter handle is @greencrude.
Mark Grimaldi has been a progressive political activist for the past 12 years. He volunteered for the campaigns of President Obama (2008 and 2012), Senator Bernie Sanders (2016), and Secretary Hillary Clinton (2016). Mark is also involved in campaign finance reform efforts around the country, and philanthropic efforts for Cancer research. His Twitter handle is @MarkJGrimaldi.
Brad writes a column every Sunday on the 2020 Presidential race for 'The Hill.' He's on the National Journal's panel of political insiders and is a national political analyst for WGN TV and Radio in Chicago and KNX Radio in Los Angeles.
