Hitting Left, Episode #234

My guest is Bill Ayers and we're talking about freedom, abolition and more.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT…

My guest yesterday on Hitting Left was author/educator/activist and long-time friend, Bill Ayers. His latest book is called, When Freedom is the Question, Abolition is the Answer: Reflections on Collective Liberation.

Bill’s book is an exploration and defense of the current abolitionist movement. I unite with the thrust of that movement but take a more critical view.

You can listen to my entire interview with Bill right here.

ON DECK AT HITTING LEFT…

My guest next Friday will be author, Co-Host of Democracy Now!, Senior Fellow at Great Cities Institute of UIC, and once upon a time, a Young Lord Juan Gonzalez.
