Nelini Stamp Interview: Police Brutality & The George Floyd Protests

Follow on Twitch:   / actdottv   Julianna welcomes back Nelini Stamp, National Director of Strategy and Partnerships at the Working Families Party (WFP), to discuss how over the weekend, as protesters took to the streets to demand justice for George Floyd and other black victims of white supremacist murder... police all over the country tear-gassed protesters, drove vehicles through crowds, and opened fire with nonlethal rounds on journalists. Nelini was one of the protesters in Brooklyn, NY who experienced how police abused their power on those who wanted to spread their message. Today, we hear about what’s new, and what’s par for the course about this weekend’s police brutality. For over a decade, Nelini has worked at the WFP to build a multiracial, economically-just society through progressive electoral campaigns nationwide and abroad. She speaks on dozens of leading progressive panels and protests in the U.S. and abroad, including Netroots Nation; the G20 protests in Hamburg, Germany; and the New Yorker festival.
