It has been six years since we started this podcast (during the height of the Covid pandemic and directly before the nationwide uprising demanding justice for George Floyd), and our mission to refuse fascism has never been more needed. Thank you to everyone who has been with us for the past few years and welcome to new listeners. To get involved with the movement that this podcast is just one part of, go to refusefascism.org
This week, Sam talks with one of the organizers from the Refuse Fascism chapter in NYC about ongoing protests at the site of the Delaney ICE facility in New Jersey, where hundreds of captives have been on a hunger and labor strike since May 22.
