Keynote Speaker:
KENNY BRUNO: DEFCON FOR DEMOCRACY
The Grassroots Emergency Election Protection Coalition zoom #75 headlines the great long-time activist KENNY BRUNO in a devastating 90-minute discussion of what we need to do to save our democracy.
We start with a brief report from HEDY TRIPP in Minnesota who organized our GREEP #74 call with KEITH ELLISON, the state’s Attorney-General.
Kenny’s bio includes important work with Greenpeace USA, Pipeline Fighters Hub, the Ruckus Society, EarthRights International and more. He is co-author with Beth Handman and their daughter Antonia Bruno of a number of very cool children’s books.
Kenny’s current article “Trump Has Already Laid the Groundwork to Subvert the 2024 Election” appears at Truthout (https://truthout.org/articles/trump-has-already-laid-the-groundwork-to-subvert-the-2024-election/) with an overview of what we face to preserve what’s left of our democracy and protect ourselves from a devastating dictatorship.
Kenny is joined on the zoom by co-convenor JOEL SEGAL, radio host LYNN FEINERMAN, legendary organizers RAY MCCLENDON, JULIE LEVINE, RAY LUTZ, JULIE WEINER and MYLA RESON,Green Party Presidential candidate HOWIE HAWKINS, indigenous activist TATANKA BRICCA, LCV Founder MARION EADY and many more.
