An extended snippet from part one of my interview with first-year MMT activist Katrina Pilver, where we gush about rapper Killer Mike. (It starts somewhere at around the 53 minute mark.) It includes the full audio of a speech inspired by James Baldwin, which used by the 2020 Bernie Sanders campaign in a powerful commercial.
I had the privilege of briefly interviewing Killer Mike at the 2016 Democratic National Convention, when I was a state delegate for Bernie Sanders, and he was a campaign surrogate. (I documented many hours of my experience as a 2016 Bernie Sanders delegate, which you can find here.)
