Liberation Radio: North Korea in the crosshairs | Cuban elections and workers' democracy

from News & Opinion

Brian Becker, National Coordinator of the ANSWER Coalition (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism), analyzes the decades-long record of U.S. aggression against North Korea and the imperialist motives driving Washington's foreign policy toward the Korean peninsula. Long-time Cuba solidarity activist Gloria La Riva talks about the recent Cuban elections, which have resulted in one of the most diverse and representative parliaments in the world, and contrasts Cuba's workers' democracy to the United States' "democracy for the rich only." (This episode features an edited version of the interview; you can find the full interview here.) We continue our special coverage of struggles against racist police brutality with a discussion with organizer Stevie Merino about the senseless shooting of Sokha Hor. Merino gives the background on the case that has sparked outrage and become a catalyst for struggle against the ruthless Long Beach Police Department.
