If you’ve ever wondered whether talking about race helps or hurts efforts to build a working-class movement, you don’t want to miss my conversation with Professor Ian Haney López. Drawing on years of empirical research, he explains why politicians and organizers who unite people across race while specifically naming the billionaire class as the source of our shared economic struggles consistently outperform messages that ignore race, or messages that focus on race alone. It’s one of the clearest, most practical discussions I’ve heard about how we actually win. Whether you’re organizing in your community, talking politics with friends, or just trying to make sense of today’s political landscape, this interview offers insights you can put to use immediately. Give the audio a listen, and if you find it valuable, please subscribe to Redneck Gone Green and share it with others. Building a movement starts with sharing ideas that bring working people together instead of letting the powerful divide us.

Reposted from @everydayisjuneteenth 𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗔𝗨𝗧𝗛𝗢𝗥 Ian Haney Lopez is a professor of law at the University of California, Berkeley. 𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗕𝗢𝗢𝗞 “Dog Whistle Politics: How Coded Racial Appeals Have Reinvented Racism and Wrecked the Middle Class” explains how politicians and plutocrats deploy veiled racial appeals to persuade white voters to support policies that favor the extremely rich yet threaten their own interests. Dog whistle appeals generate enthusiasm for political candidates who slash taxes for the rich, give corporations regulatory control over industry and financial markets, and aggressively cut social services. And white voters fail to see the connection between the political agendas they support and the surging wealth inequality that takes an increasing toll on their lives.

LINK to article in LINKTREE in BIO. Did you know that Brazil’s Congress just approved federal affirmative action in the country for another 10 years? Brazil has one of the most expansive and successful affirmative action programs in higher education. Today, Brazil's federal universities are more than 50 percent Black, a reflection of Brazil's population. Forty years ago, that number barely exceeded 10 percent. This is the success of Brazil's entire Black movement. But the work of one man stands out—Frei David Raimundo dos Santos. Frei David Santos is a Catholic priest and he has spent the last 30 years fighting to increase access to higher education for Black and impoverished students in Brazil. But 46 years ago, he didn't even see himself as Black. Most of Frei David's work has been accomplished through Educafro, the non-profit he founded more than 25 years. I'm honored to have written this profile of Frei David, who many people have compared to a Nelson Mandela or even Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. of Brazil. Thank you to the Black Catholic Messenger who gave me as much space as I wanted to tell his ENTIRE story. #Educafro #affirmativeaction #BlackBrazil #spiritualexemplars

The Raceless Gospel began with a reading list. I have hundreds of books on race and its progeny, a collection of voices documenting its inception and demanding its demise. I literally read my way out of the sociopolitical construct. It was the books that talked me through. #racelessgospel #starlettethomas #bookstagram #readinglist #race #racelessness #aracialactivist #raceabolitionist #bookrecommendations #books #booklover #booknerd #booklove #bookcommunity
