YouTube Description
as posted by the channelMonopoly expert Matt Stoller joins public defender, author, civil rights lawyer, & founder of Civil Rights Corp to hash out their online disagreements about the "defund" movement. Many lefty guests over the years have raised concerns with defund as a slogan or as a movement goal, but rarely do they have an opportunity to talk directly to an abolitionist and expert like Alec. This conversation represents a real step forward toward the goal better understanding why "defund" was chosen as a label, the importance of breaking from reformist movements of the past, and the root of why so many ideologically aligned people bristle at the word.
