HOW THE LEFT CAN CONTRIBUTE TO THE GUN DEBATE

Traven Leyshon is a longtime labor and socialist activist, has a radio show on Vermont commercial radio, Equal Time with Traven, and writes a lot. He grew up in rural gun culture.  Here he talks with the Old Mole’s Bill Resnick about how the left can enter the current great discussion about guns, reducing massacres like Parkland and violence across the board by banning assault rifles and other reforms  We must recognize the need, too, for transforming the economy and culture that produces so many desperate, alienated, and angry men.
