In the first new episode of 2021 I'm joined by Larry Williams Jr., founder of UnionBase.org, the first secure social networking and education platform for unions and union workers, which has been featured in Forbes, Fast Company and numerous other publications. UnionBase is regarded as the leading platform for a new generation of union workers. Larry is also former President of Progressive Workers Union (PWU), a powerful Washington, D.C. union for non-profit employees that recently signed a transformative landmark five year contract with the Sierra Club, America's largest environmental organization. Key to today's discussion, Larry is also a veteran of the Hill and is no stranger to the citadel of our democracy, which was defiled by Trump's armed mob in a failed insurrection last week.
We talk about the day's breaking news that Donald Trump has become the first president to be impeached twice. We also cover the events of last week and the seditious actions of Trump and his most fervent supporters, as well as the long term implications for our democracy of having such a large portion of our population buying into the myth and cult of Trump. This past week has been quite a year!
