Green & Red: Podcasts for Scrappy Radicals

In 1989, and again 1990, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled flag burning a First Amendment protected action. In 2025, Trump has issued an executive order banning flag burning. Trump's executive order mean absolutely nothing. But, it is part of his administration's greater plan to roll back civil liberties in the U.S. In our latest, we talk with legendary civil rights attorney Ron Kuby, who advocated for the flag burners in 1989, about flag burning, McCarthyist strategies by the administration today, anti-semitism, New York mayoral politics and more. Bio// Ron Kuby-criminal defense and civil rights lawyer based in New York. He was a partner to the late and great William Kunsler.

20 years ago this week Hurricane Katrina made landfall on the Gulf Coast. On August 29th, the levees broke and created a humanitarian crisis rarely seen before, seen too often now. Over 1800 people died and over a million evacuated with hundreds of thousands being permanently displaced in the aftermath. In the neighborhood of Algiers, a group of anarchists and radicals started the Common Ground Relief to provide mutual aid to the communities impacted by the hurricane, but also by their places in the margins of New Orleans. Over 100,000 volunteers passed through New Orleans over a three year period and it became to largest anarchist inspired organization in modern U.S. history. In our latest, we talk with one of the co-founders of Common Ground, and one of our long time homies, scott crow about Hurricane Katrina, Common Ground and the "long slow history of disaster." We discuss the themes of collective liberation, mutual aid and direct action and how they fit into that history.

Contrary to what happens in many other parts of the world and within Trump’s GOP, the Democratic Party leadership shuns street protests. In fact, discouraging street politics is part of the it’s strategy of punching left.

Since 2008, and even more since 2018 and 2023, private equity firms have been buying up real estate and rental properties across the U.S. No firm has preyed up on peoples' precarity more than private equity firm Blackstone. The fimr is the largest landlord in the United States by... a LOT. It owns 100,00 more rental units than its next closest competitor.

We’re living in challenging times with an escalating climate disaster devastating communities from Texas and Louisiana to Richmond, CA. Few institutions are as responsible for these crisis as Wall Street and Big Insurance companies. We’re also living in a time where large numbers of people have taken to the streets to confront those responsible for these crises. Moderated by Green and Red co-host, and long time climate finance campaigner, Scott Parkin, this panel discussed the role of major financial institutions in providing loans,investments and insurance to fossil fuel companies destroying communities from the Gulf South to Richmond, CA, and about the resistance to these companies.

This week as the negotiations for a Global Plastic Treaty fail in Geneva, Switzerland over a cap on plastic production, we look at the undue influence of the fossil fuel and plastic industries. False solutions to the climate crisis, and now the plastic pollution crisis, are part of an industry playbook to misinform the public and deflect from actual solutions. In the case of plastics, it's promoting plastic recycling that doesn't actually work. In our latest, we talk with researchers Davis Allen and Rebecca John to discuss industry strategies to undermine any progress on curbing plastic pollution. Bios//Rebecca John is a Research Fellow at the Climate Investigations Center. She is also a freelance journalist and award-winning documentary film maker.

It's the 80th anniversary of the dropping of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists has the Doomsday Clock at 89 seconds to midnight, while Trump moves nuclear submarines closer to Russia in response to social media posts by Russian officials. Aerial photographs of the Gaza Strip look eerily similar to Hiroshima and Nagasaki 80 years ago. It's a good a time as ever to consider and re-consider the lessons of Truman's "Atomic Diplomacy" in 1945. So we're reposting our episode on the atomic bombing of Japan at the end of World War Two. ----------------------------------------- From the 2020 episode: “For years, large majorities of Americans have believed that the U.S. had to use the A-Bomb against Japan on August 6th, 1945 to end the war quickly and avoid a land war and thus save one-million American lives. Scott and Bob discuss the use of the bomb, why it was used as a message to the Soviet Union and not a military necessity, the chronology behind the development and deployment of atomic weapons, the U.S. public response to it, and the creation of a new history, a propaganda piece, regarding the use of the bomb. The dropping of the bomb on Hiroshima was vital in the development of the Cold War, the arms race, the military-industrial complex, and the National Security State. Seventy-five years after the first atomic weapon was used by the U.S., it’s still a highly-debated and important topic.” ------------------------------------ Outro- Green and Red Blues by Moody 🔗 Links// 🤔 80 years later, Americans have mixed views on whether use of atomic bombs on Hiroshima, Nagasaki was justified (https://bit.ly/4mbPPXc) 😬 Gar Alperovitz: The War Was Won Before Hiroshima—and the Generals Who Dropped the Bomb Knew It (https://bit.ly/47mDGtJ) 🎙️ Follow Green and Red 🔗 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast 🌐 Website: https://greenandredpodcast.org 💬 Join our Discord community: https://discord.gg/M24GyqrS 📰 Follow us on Substack: https://greenandredpodcast.substack.com 🌌 Follow us on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/podcastgreenred.bsky.social 💚 Support the Green and Red Podcast 🎉 Become a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast ☕ One-time donation: https://bit.ly/DonateGandR 🌍 Our Networks🎧 Labor Podcast Network: https://www.laborradionetwork.org 📢 Anti-Capitalist Podcast Network: https://linktr.ee/anticapitalistpodcastnetwork📻 Listen on WAMF (90.3 FM) New Orleans: https://wamf.org ✊ Unions Power America Sweepstakes: unionpowerusa.com 🎬 A Green and Red Podcast production👨‍🏫 Produced by Bob (@bobbuzzanco) and Scott (@sparki1969)✂️ Edited by Scott🔔 Subscribe for more analysis on U.S. politics, leftist strategy, and anti-establishment resistance.

Hulk Hogan died recently. He's been denounced by some, praised by others. On his impact on the sport, pro wrestling historian Brian Soloman remarked on his passing "Wrestling history is divided in two parts: Before Hulk Hogan, and after Hulk Hogan…He was larger than life, inspired millions of people, many of whom spent decades being gradually let down by him.” But, also, some contend, his influence on our current cultural and political moment is significant as well. Generations are influenced by his muscles and swagger, he introduced Trump at last year's Republican National Convention and his personal political actions are also worth noting.

Billionaires are ravaging our democracy. One of the worst culprits is tech fascist billionaire Peter Theil. His company Palantir's technology allows ICE to identify, locate, and kidnap migrants en masse. Their spy-cop tools track activists and organizers. The IDF uses Palantir tech to commit genocide in Gaza. On Thursday, hundreds of activists disrupted and shut down Palantir's offices in New York City and in the Silicon Valley town of Palo Alto. This action is the launch of summer campaign called "Stop Billionaire Summer." In the latest episode, Scott talks with Alice Hu about the action and the Purge Palantir campaign.

Los Angeles is under attack by the Trump Administration. Every day we hear new stories about I.C.E. attacking, detaining and arresting citizens and non-citizens. But we're also seeing lots of stories of community resistance to the I.C.E. raids. In our latest, Bob and Scott talk with Enrique Ochoa about LA's long history of resistance and how different institutions (schools, LAPD, media, unions) are responding to this unprecedented attack on ordinary people trying to live their lives.
