The American Dream

Paradigm Shift 4ZZZ fm 102.1 Fridays at Noon – November 13, 2020

This week’s Paradigm Shift features a 1965 speech by James Baldwin at the Oxford University Union where he presages the current racial crisis in the US . He accurately predicts the election of a African American President (Obama) almost down to the year but cautions us on what it may deliver.

Speakers: John Jiggens, Greg Chipp (Drug Law Reform), James Baldwin (Essayist), and Barack Obama speak about the American Dream after recent 2020 US Presidential Elections.
