Funny how the radical left gets away with their shit. And then 50 years later they are at it again. So in another half century they will look back on the migration patterns in Europe today with a shrug, while they are busy applauding some other kind of fuckery. Great story DC. Keep it coming👏👏

The white radicals got away with it. Most of the black militants, especially the men, ended up dead or in prison.

How about leaving us the "children of the revolution" to be (until recently) DAs of places like San Francisco (looking at you Chesa Boudin)... Child of Kathy and raised by Bill Ayers... Incredible how little we remember how poisonous are these radicals...

The white radicals not only got away w it, they got professorships and helped launch a presidential campaign.

Whoa! Slow your roll Darryl. I've got 2 kids and a limited amount of time for listening to stuff other than Mr. Tumble singing nursery rhymes.😉

Sweet!

Story time is awesome... wouldn't mind if you added a little more commentary on the readings, your insight is why most people listen.

Hey Daryl, would now be a good time to tell us how important and overlooked Daniel Ellsberg was to the 60s and now? Thanks for reminding us of the history that still affects us.

Awesome! I liked so much I downloaded “ Days of Rage”. It’s super interesting going over the riots and the head space of those causing the chaos in the late 60s early 70s. I kinda remember some of this when I was a little kid. The topic over the dinner table were on these lines. But, I was young and didn’t really care about it. I’m definitely interested in the topic now.

Nice touch with inner city blues at the end of part 1. That song really pulls at the heart strings. The radical left of the 60’s ans 70’s was a different breed. You kinda have to respect the commitment these people had, not the belief. They put it all on the line . What I don’t like is that Assada Shakur still claims she’s innocent. She’s the victim. Why not tell the truth ? She belonged to a group who’s goal was to kill cops and overthrow the government. She’s got asylum in Cuba. Just admit what you did.

You mentioned Mark Essex in episode 1 and I immediately thought of his reference in Gil Scott Heron’s version of the song. Check it out if you don’t already know it, it’s a jam

Damn, this is a good version, thx

Great story telling as always Mr. Cooper! I now have been schooled how to pronounce “Tappan Zee” Is that a nod to how the Native Americans enunciate it for which the bridge and section of River it’s named for? Shame how It’s now renamed for Cuomo. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Don’t take my word for it. I probably butchered it.

It was a worthy attempt, but locals pronounce it “Tap in zee.” Enjoyed this more than I thought I would, by the way.

i thought the locals pronounce it Cuomo now

Awesome mate! I have no political position on the material. I just want to say your storytelling skills are an absolute credit to you. Keep moving. 👍

I, too, would nearly listen to you reading the Thesaurus..... nearly. I don't want you to get too far ahead of yourself. 😁🙏

These latest episodes are like a moonshine soaked cherry on top of the Gods Socialist episodes. More history I never learned about and that my 7 and 3 year olds will be required to listen to.
