The inspiring Nina Turner joins me to talk about the state of the union, what the 4th of July means to her, and so much more. This woman has been a courageous activist on behalf of social justice and an undaunted voice of truth for years.
Here is a link to some of the books we mentioned on the show: Dumbing Us Down, The Underground History of American Education, Lies My Teacher Taught Me, A People’s History.
Throughout her career, State Senator Nina Turner has fought to improve Northeast Ohio and the lives of those who call it home. Continually devoted to the issues of education, employment, and building strong and safe communities, she has embraced a no-nonsense attitude toward confronting the problems that face our cities and state on a daily basis. An outspoken advocate of the disenfranchised and under-represented, Senator Turner believes that if individuals are provided with the means they will craft for themselves their own American dream.
Nina Turner is a self-described democratic socialist whose politics have been variously described as progressive, left-wing, or far-left.
Nina was also the Democratic nominee for Ohio Secretary of State in 2014, losing to incumbent Jon Husted. She supported Bernie Sanders in his 2016 presidential campaign, and became president of the Sanders-affiliated political action organization Our Revolution in 2017. She served as a national co-chair of Sanders’s 2020 presidential campaign.
