Hip-hop activist, journalist, and community organizer Rosa Clemente has a few good reasons why she doesn’t rock with the Dems. For one, they keep trying to kick her party – the Green Party – off of state ballots. And don’t get her started on Hillary Clinton’s foreign policy! In this episode of Politically Re-Active, the Green Party’s ’08 vice presidential nominee talks about the personal consequences of being on a political ticket, why the Green Party is forced to go after the presidency, and how the black and brown people of America are the biggest losers in the two-party system. To those who roll their eyes at “voting your conscience,” take a listen – Rosa might have you thinking way beyond this election...Find Rosa on the road as she travels the nation with her speaking tour, “Truth II Power”!
