Renowned independent radio journalist/author
David Barsamian Speaks
“Resistance
in the
Age of Trump”
Award-winning founder and director of
Alternative Radio, the independent weekly
audio series featured on 300 stations.
One of America’s most wide-ranging and
respected independent journalists, David
has altered the media landscape with his
radio programs and books with Noam
Chomsky, Tariq Ali, Howard Zinn, Edward
Said, Arundhati Roy and others.
Wall Street likes what it sees in the 45th president.
We the people like what we see in the resistance
movement: efforts to protect progressive populist
programs like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid,
municipal bodies declaring their jurisdictions to be
“sanctuary cities”, a ramped up environmentalism, and
a growing internationalist sentiment. As Joe Hill said,
“Don’t Mourn. Organize.” Trump has raised the stakes.
The People are responding. Yes, we’re in for quite a ride.
But a broad coalition in opposition is growing.
