Today on Sojourner Truth, we kick off Black History Month hearing the words of James Baldwin and WEB Dubois. Hakeem Jeffries is causing quite a stir in his new leadership position in the Democratic Party, so why are some worried about his positions on foreign policy, in particular controversy on his positions re the Israeli Palestinian conflict? Our guest is Stephen Zunes Professor of politics at the University of San Francisco who will be elaborating on this. And Anna Aurilio with the Federal Campaign Director of Economic Security Project Action joins host Margaret Prescod to discuss the latest on the expanded Child Tax Credit on Federal and State levels providing an update on the EITC (Earned Income Tax Credit) and the movements for a guaranteed income and a basic income.
