Rebecca McKean and I started this program asking why so many U.S. Americans call Mayor Mamdani a “communist” and then explore the humanist idea that we all live in individual “landscapes” that form our perspectives and emotions — and that those landscapes can be re-considered. We recorded at 5 Napkin Burger on Broadway and 84th Street in Manhattan — speaking with David Andersson, the English-language editor of the Pressenza International Press Agency . We had talked with David in BCR #230 in June 2024 at the West Side Community Garden. And we invited N.J. high school honors student, Jeremy Maletzky — who I had met at a talk at the Rosa Luxemburg Institute on ending the conflict in the Middle East a few weeks earlier — to talk about “humanism” and the ideas of Mario Rodriguez Cobos — an Argentinian, otherwise known as “Silo”.
