Direct Action Gets the Goods: Stop Cop City, Animal Liberation and more ft. Jake Conroy (G&R 238)

We welcome back our friend, comrade and maker of trouble Jake Conroy (@_jakeconroy) to discuss the state of direct action. We talk about the state repression of activists in Atlanta and elsewhere, the lessons of 2020, strategies to win and whether there is anything to be optimistic about. Jake Conroy is the host of "The Cranky Vegan" on YouTube, and co-host of the podcast "Radicals and Revolutionaries." He's a long-time animal rights activist who was sentenced to 4 years in prison for his involvement in one of the most successful animal rights campaigns in history – Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty (SHAC USA). Jake Conroy has been involved in a wide range of activism since 1995. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outro- "Magic Carpet Ride" by Steppenwolf Links// +The Cranky Vegan (https://bit.ly/39Y7cLe) +Radicals and Revolutionaries: https://radicalsandrevolutionaries.com/ +Radicals and Revolutionaries on Instagram: https://instagram.com/radicalsandrevo...
