Brian Becker of the Socialist Program podcast joins us to talk about trump, the world, the right-wing threats worldwide, and the need for socialism now.   Boomers grew up in fear of this dreaded system called socialism, even though it is and has been working in the thriving countries of Europe.  Brian discusses why boomers feel this way and how to alleviate fears of a system that works for the people instead of the profiteers.  For a song, we remember that 55 years ago, four students at Kent State and two more at Jackson State were killed by our government.
