RAD-TV Presents: Development and Strikes

Description

Rights and Democracy Vermont takes you through some local issues with guests Dustin Tanner and Adrian Pascual as they join Host Grant Taylor to bring you updates from the front lines of rights campaigns and related issues.

The team responds to the recent hate crimes in Claremont, NH and the Northeast Kingdom, and how it makes us all step back a little when these types of problems come to light and split a community. 

Grant and guests talk about teacher’s unions and their right to strike, in relation to recent events in Burlington. They also explore some recent development projects that will define the face of Burlington for the foreseeable future. Both Memorial Auditorium and City Hall Park are in danger of pandering to big business and for-profit operations instead of welcoming and entertaining all people. 

Finally, they preview a core aspect of RAD’s overall modus operandi for future episodes: Movement Politics.
