Punching Up With Maya May: Jen Mercieca
Jen Mercieca writes: "If you look into your heart you know deep down that predatory capitalism has us all sick, has enabled a war & prison industry, that our society is configured in ways that divide and alienate us from what is our best nature, that the two party system entrenches power. Let them break it. Let them defund it. It didn't protect us anyway. The system was built on fascism. This will be our chance to rebuild a system based on democracy and equality. It's a gift, actually. A painful and stressful gift." Okay, Jen, tell us who to punch! This week Maya is joined by rhetoric expert, Dr. Jennifer Mercieca. Wednesday, November 27 @7p ET.
