The Indypendent News Hour on WBAI // 22 Sept. '23
b'In the first half the show, we speak with State Senator Jessica Ramos of Queens about climate change, the city\\u2019s failed response to the migrant crisis and her reaction to growing speculation that she might challenge Mayor Eric Adams in the 2025 Democratic primary. \\n\\nIn our second segment, we are joined by long time Indypendent columnist and Contributing Editor Nicholas Powers. Nick is currently working on his fourth book. It explores the intersection of psychedelics, race and systems of power and it asks where psychedelics would fit in a socialist revolution. Nick is also preparing to leave in a few days for Burning Man, the annual late summer counter-cultural extravaganza held every year in the Nevada desert. The festival draws upwards of 80,000 people. Nick has been attending Burning Man for the past 20 years. He fills all of us non-Berners in on what all the hype is about.'
