“Whether the current phase of Israel’s intensified repression and Palestinian popular resistance will evolve into a full-fledged intifada or not, one thing is already evident—a new generation of Palestinians is marching on the footsteps of previous generations, rising up en masse against Israel’s brutal, decades-old regime of occupation, settler colonialism and apartheid.” – From the BDS Statement: Solidarity with the Palestinian popular resistance! Boycott Israel now!

David DeGraw, the organizer behind Tip.Vote, has some unusual advice for Bernie Sanders.
About the guest:
“The most famous phrases of 2011 were the ‘99%’ and the ‘1%.’ Media analysts report that after the creation of those phrases and their wide adoption by Occupy Wall Street, the media and many politicians, discussions of income inequality in America rose dramatically. David DeGraw’s coinage of these terms rendered an invaluable service to America, even the world, by making visible the sharp divide in the fortunes of citizens in much of the world. He ranks in the top ten on the list of people the plutocrats hate. His insights into how the 99% can take back America and other nations from the financial elites, who all too often became wealthy through the massive fraud that drove the Great Recession, are vital.” — William K. Black, white-collar criminologist, former financial regulator and author of “The Best Way to Rob a Bank is to Own One”
