Show Notes
Zohran Mamdani’s platform centers on New York’s affordability crisis and includes promises to freeze rents for two million rent-stabilized tenants, build two hundred thousand new affordable units, and provide government-run grocery stores and free universal childcare. Dorothy Day was a radical New Yorker as well. Both Mamdani and Day are defined by their commitment to workers and the poor, but only one still stands as a radical in the fight for justice, and it isn’t Mamdani. Thomas Dias has more.
