Bread and Puppet Theatre: GAZA EMERGENCY MASS 11/19/2023

From the organizer:

August 18, 2023 in the Dirt Floor Theater at Bread and Puppet - Medea Benjamin, anti-war activist and co-founder of Code Pink, exposes contradictions in the coverages of the major liberal media in their protection of the hypocrisies of the Biden Administration.

She points out that there has never been any US attempt to negotiate a peaceful resolution to the Ukraine war with Russia, no direct talks by President Biden to Vladiimir Putin nor by Secretary of State Blinken with his Russian counterpart. Benjamin maintains that America challenges Russia - while dominating the NATO countries - to maintain the hegemony of an American empire mired in the thrashings of late capitalism.

Following her fact-filled address, there are challenging and probing questions from the audience, many of whom are inspired by the thought of confronting Sen. Bernie Sanders in his support of the Biden Administration's stance.
