Notes from the Left Forum 2018: Black Agenda Report and UNAC
- John Jay College, New York 06/06/2018 by Linda Perry (WBAI Radio)
Bruce Dixon of Black Agenda Report and UNAC says,“We condemn Trump for a lot of things we gave Obama a pass on."
In this program, Margaret Kimberly, Bruce Dixon and Glen Ford of
Black Agenda Report and
UNAC, the United National Antiwar Coalition, speak at a panel called Russiagate: Muzzling the Black Left and the March to War, but as you’ll hear it’s more a panel on the need for more political space. The panelists look at how the Democratic Party is using Russiagate and how the black left rather than being muzzled, is muzzling itself.
The Left Forum was held in NYC from June 1-3 at John Jay College. The theme of the 2018 conference was "Towards a New Strategy for the Left." Panels throughout the weekend addressed the need for left unity and power building in this time of fragmentation.
