ON JUNETEENTH WE VISIT AUSTRALIA, DEFUND THE FASCISTS & SAVE PACIFICA RADIO
We open the GREE-GREE zoom #99 with CLAIRE ATKIN of Check My Ads and its brilliant, cutting-edge campaign to strip internet-based income from fascist media mavens like Steve Bannon.
Launched in early June, Claire’s pathbreaking strategy includes grassroots campaigning against the violent-laced hate-mongering of the extreme right wing.
Claire is followed by LEHMAN WEISCHSELBAUM’s call for whistleblowers to unearth fraud and theft in the 2016 election that put Donald Trump in the White House.
We hear from RAY MCCLENDON, NAACP Political Director for the NAACP in the state of Georgia about the possibility of indicting Trump in Fulton County.
From Australia DR. CAROLYN ORR describes the huge turn-around in parliamentary politics with the unseating of a horrendous anti-environment conservative and the installation of a pro-democracy pro-environment coalition.
In our second hour,
CRISIS AND SOLUTIONS AT THE PACIFICA RADIO NETWORK
We spend a landmark hour examining the extremely critical history and current status of the priceless and irreplaceable Pacifica Radio Network.
We start with the great ALAN MINSKY, long-time KPFK Program Director and current Executive Director of the Progressive Democrats of America.
As only he can, Alan gives us a brilliant overview of how the network has functioned and what its immense political value really can be.
HARVEY WASSERMAN then recounts the tragic assault against the most recent attempt the reform the Pacifica by-laws by a New Day organization that won the popular vote by 55% to 45%, thus mandating the rules change desperately need to save the network.
New Day Pacifica Founder JAN GOODMAN then explains the detail of the by-laws change going forward.
She is joined by New Day supporter MYLA RESON who further explores the realities of this astonishing anti-democracy coup which has cost the progressive movement its most powerful broadcast voice.
If you believe the progressive movement needs a democratically elected and run broadcast network, don’t miss this vital discussion.

GREE-GREE #100 on June 27 will go deep into Georgia to learn if Fulton County will indict Trump, and whether the “Georgia Miracle” can be repeated in the fall.
