#416 Zee Cohen-Sanchez - An Honest Conversation with a Far Leftist
About this episode
Zuby is joined by political campaigner Zee Cohen-Sanchez, founder of Sole Strategies and executive director of National Ground Game. Zee shares her journey from witnessing Occupy Wall Street as a college student to becoming a far-left organiser who helped elect Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Zohran Mamdani. The two discuss American healthcare, the housing crisis, taxation, government spending, the trans debate, gun control, money in politics, and the future of the Democratic Party.
