In the age of COVID-19, Capitalism is a comorbidity. The real disease is our system. And so: Rent Strike! This May Day the entire world will celebrate unions, workers and the right to strike-- but not here in America. American labor is never celebrated, it's only threatened. On today's show we examine America, a nation created by slavery and now destroyed by a ruling class that misses it.  Guests: New York Times Labor Reporter—Author of "Beaten Down, Worked Up: The Past, Present & Future of American Labor" Steven Greenhouse; Labor Historian and Author of "Teacher Strike! Public Education and the Making of a New American Political Order" Professor Jon Shelton; First Lady Melania Trump (Played by Martha Previte); Animal Behaviorist Dr. Jennifer Verdolin takes your questions; Author of "Myth And Mayhem: A Leftist Critique of Jordan Peterson" Professor Ben Burgis takes your questions; The Rev. Barry W. Lynn looks back at the week; Comedian Laura House and David answer listener questions. Join us Friday May 1, 2020 9:00 PM Eastern for "Office Hours" on Zoom-- where guests of the David Feldman Show meet our listeners. It's free! You can join us on Zoom or by phone simply by : Martha Previte plays Melania Trump, Senator Susan Collins and Martha Stewart on our show.
