That's exactly what Joe Biden is doing, with his weak and misguided response to student protests across the country for justice in Gaza. Mark Thompson returns to Woke AF Daily for a special conversation with Danielle Moodie about this crucial moment, with perspective from the ground floor at Columbia. This conversation was recorded prior to NYPD incursions on the Columbia campus and others across America.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Danielle continues to shine a light on the most important story in America: the violent crackdown on student protests on college campuses across the country. This is actually not a "complex" issue, and we as a people need to think about the work that is required to put into creating the world we desire.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The philosophy of this Supreme Court and the entire right-wing movement that has led to this moment is one of depravity.

It is a dark time in America, and as always the cruelty is the point. Since the fall of Roe v.

I've had enough death to joke about people dying.
You know you're not from Long Island when you say, "in Long Island".
Danielle, I cannot thank you enough. I got turned onto you and your work through the Mary Trump Show. For months I have come to love Woke AF Daily and Democracyish. I absolutely loved your year-end reflections. Danielle, all the very best in 2023 exactly along the lines of what you shared. Warmly, Janet E Ploss Seattle, WA
