Act Out! [43]: Audio Podcast - New Year's Edition

Act Out! [43]: Audio Podcast - New Year's Edition
Mon, 1/4/2016 - by Eleanor Goldfield
This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

For those of you who follow the TV show, you know that we didn't have a show this week. But I just couldn't let January 1st pass without a podcast so here, in lieu of the audio from the video show, are the words you missed.

A few select spoken word pieces that came before we started doing the podcast in week 23.

I name the episode that they're taken from so you can easily head to our YouTube page or our spoken word archive to see them in video form.

Here, I performed them live, one take, on a shitty mic in my living room - you know, guerilla style creative activism :)

Here's to a 2016 filled with creativity, activism and inspiration. 

Thanks for listening and keep acting out!

We have to be smart in how we fight against Trump and the Republican Party this time around. That means picking our battles wisely, and not taking bait that’s dangled in front of our faces.

Over the next two years, Democrats have the unfettered ability to be an albatross around the neck of the GOP — and to make sure that what little they manage to get done due to their paper-thin majorities becomes the reason for their undoing.

Protests are set to take place in several major cities across the U.S. on Monday, the Presidents Day holiday, according to activists.

The way the urban commons create a space to solve material problems and enable social movements to forge city-wide networks are antidotes to people being attracted towards the far-right.
