Positive, daily news for democracy! In this episode of "Good News for Lefties," host Beowulf Rochlen brings you a collection of uplifting stories that highlight the resilience of democracy, the power of community, and the positive actions of individuals standing up for justice. From the overwhelming response of citizens to political upheaval to a judge's ruling that restores vital foreign aid, we explore how progressive values are making a difference in America. We also celebrate the courage of communities confronting hate and the remarkable drop in crime rates in Detroit, showcasing the effectiveness of collaborative efforts in building safer neighborhoods. Join us for a dose of optimism as we navigate the daily news landscape with a leftist lens.
