Solartopia Green Power & Wellness Hour - 7.25.24

CHRISTO-FASCISM; OHIO IN TURMOIL; GRASSROOTS ORGANIZING & ORGANIC FOOD


We open GREEP Zoom #184 with ANDRA WATKINS & her uniquely powerful view of Christo-Fascist / Christian Nationalism and Project 2025, the far-right blueprint for a new American theocracy.

Andra grew up in a South Carolina fundamentalist community but somehow came away to give us a powerful ground-up view of the forces trying to make America Puritan again.

DR. NANCY NIPARKO, our resident neurologist, wonders about the psychology behind this increasingly powerful fascist movement.

ERIC LAZARUS, LYNN FEINERMAN, DR. RUTH STRAUSS, JOHN STEINER, DIANA ARTEMIS get into the nitty gritty of what the far right is really saying.

Voter Suppression in Ohio is explained by NANCY LARSON in deep detail, especially when it comes to Ohio’s disenfranchisement czar Frank LaRose.

WENDI LEDERMAN reports from Florida about how the DeSantis disenfranchisement campaign is destroying what’s left of democracy in the Sunshine State.

We are illuminated by the great DENNIS BERNSTEIN, host of the nationally-syndicated FLASHPOINTS, originating at KPFA/Pacifica.
