Redacted tonight getting through crisis

Lee interviews Californian activist and congressional candidate Angelica Dueñas. She is currently heavily involved in community mutual aid efforts while also experiencing personal crises. They discuss mutual aid through this crisis, how survivors of sexual assault are being asked by the DNC to support a sexual predator, her experience as a Bernie delegate in 2016, and her campaign for Congress.

Naomi Karavani reports on a case of corruption in the pharmaceutical industry. Gilead is involved in multiple anti-trust lawsuits for their drugs. Meanwhile, they hold a drug that shows potential for treating Covid-19, Remdesivir. Their history of price gouging is an omen for how they’ll take advantage of their monopoly on that drug in the US. Anders Lee takes a step back in time to remember how in 1941 the US destroyed a Greek movement for democracy from communist allies in the fight against the Nazis.
