Woke Up This Morning, Got Myself a Podcast!

It’s our hundredth episode.

Our favorite music is that music that gets in your face, flips over tables and fights those in power.
The fight against Enbridge’s Line 3 pipeline continues to escalate. Since we last talked about it, Indigenous women-led movements on the ground have been disrupting construction along the pipeline route. Last week, the Giniw Collective, Earth First!, Rainforest Action Network and others took more action.
In our third episode of our ongoing conversation about the New Left, we pay tribute to the memory of the great New Left historian Walter LaFeber of Cornell University.
Since the Paris Climate Agreement in 2015, the financial sector has put $3.8 TRILLION into the fossil fuel sector. That’s $3.8 trillion into oil, gas, coal and Indigenous and human rights abuses across the globe. These banks notoriously fund projects like the Dakota Access Pipeline and Enbridge’s Line 3 Pipeline. The banking sector keeps Big Oil flush with cash contributing trillions to the climate crisis. Wall Street, as well as banks in Canada, Europe, Asia and other parts of the world also talk a happy positive rap on sustainability and a healthy environment, but continue to make huge profits from it.
