Ep. 74: Oliver Larkin on Running for Congress and Fighting for Democracy
from The Democratic Constitution Podcast · host Lucas De Hart and Luke Pickrell
In this episode, I talk with Oliver Larkin, an activist, union organizer, and Democratic Socialist running for Congress in Florida’s 23rd District against Jared Moskowitz. Oliver’s campaign website is here.Oliver and I discuss the details of his campaign, including what it means to run as a proud Democratic Socialist and member of Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). We also talk about Florida’s “democracy crisis” and how it mirrors nationwide issues connected to the undemocratic Constitution, the history of Reconstruction and other struggles for universal and equal rights, the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence (and Tom Paine’s Common Sense), and standing true to one’s principles and convictions when the going gets tough.
