Episode 17: SCOTUS Racial Profiling Ruling and Zohran Teams Up with Bernie to Fight The Oligarchy

This week, Brooklyn took center stage in the Fight the Oligarchy Tour as Bernie Sanders and Zohran Mamdani teamed up for a town hall that brought national populism and local affordability into the same conversation. Bernie hammered home the urgency of confronting wealth inequality and ensuring every American can live a dignified life, while Zohran tied that fight directly to New York’s crushing costs of housing, transit, and survival. Their messages fused into a shared vision of fairness in a city that feels increasingly out of reach.But while Brooklyn was talking justice, Washington was moving in the opposite direction. On September 8th, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of ICE’s use of racial profiling in deportation enforcement in California, a decision that critics say enshrines discrimination into law. We unpack what this ruling means for immigrant communities, civil rights, and the already fragile state of American democracy.New episodes drop every Tuesday.
