Weekends: Palestinian General Strike, Mark Kelly's Money, and Dystopian Amazon w/ Alex Press & Big Wos

Every Saturday at 1 PM ET, Ana Kasparian and Nando Vila broadcast live from the Jacobin YouTube channel. Weekends features free-flowing and humorous commentary on current events and political strategy. This is the podcast version of the show from May 22, 2021. Jacobin staff writer Alex Press joins us to detail how powerful Amazon has become during the pandemic and what the future of organizing efforts might look like. Big Wos Lambre also joins us to discuss the unfolding events in Israel-Palestine, the Palestinian general strike, and the financial interests that are keeping Senator Mark Kelly from supporting the PRO Act. Also, as always, we make fun of how young producer Cale is.
