FuseBox Radio #657: #FBR Classic Long Format Episode - 2016 Presidential Candidate Interview Sessions: Socialist Party USA's Emidio "Mimi" Soltysik (R.I.P.) & Angela Nicole Walker
With the show coming back into dropping regular episodes this year, we're dropping a few flashback shows for everyone!Introduction Song: A Tribe Called Quest - Youthful Expression (Jive Records)During this FuseBox Radio Broadcast episode, DJ Fusion interviewed Emidio "Mimi" Soltysik (R.I.P. to a great person at large, activist & longtime friend of the show who transitioned over the past week) & Angela Nicole Walker, the presidential and vice-presidential candidates for the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election for the Socialist Party USA.During 2016's “interesting” presidential election cycle (to say the least) in the United States, we were more aware than ever of the imbalance in how 3rd parties are looked at in our current political system in terms of balanced exposure by mainstream media outlets, if they even get any attention at all.The FuseBox Radio’s 2016 Presidential Candidate Interview Sessions were created to assist with educating voters a bit of information about various political parties & ideologies beyond the Democrat/Republican binary with what they stand for straight from the source.We talked about their viewpoint of what exactly IS a socialist, how Emidio & Angela decided to become deeply & personally involved with politics & the Socialist Party USA, their platform (in regards to education, health care, the legal system & more), how change needs to happen from local levels on up (in the ballot box and on the streets), the politics of division & the urgent need to change that ASAP, naturally being “intersectional as f**k”, how folks have been responding to their campaign (especially since socialism has been slandered with misinformation via various places) and lots more!For more information about the Soltysik/Walker campaign, go to:http://www.Rev16.ushttps://twitter.com/SocialistRev16https://www.facebook.com/Rev2016For more information about the Socialist Party USA, go to:http://socialistparty-usa.net/https://twitter.com/SPofUSAhttps://www.facebook.com/SPUSofAFor more information about Mimi Soltysik, check out this great breakdown by Common Dreams here: https://www.commondreams.org/views/2020/06/28/interview-mimi-soltysik-1974-2020___Official FuseBox Radio Broadcast Website: http://www.FuseBoxRadio.comOfficial FuseBox Radio Broadcast Facebook Page: http://www.facebook.com/FuseBoxRadioShow
