Manufacturing Dissent Since 1996
New interviews throughout the week
Stop cop city

When we rely on parties which have given us no indication whatsoever that they're a liberal party of liberation, then we not only have the wrong historical analysis, but we are a lot of times either wasting our time, we're being brought off, and not doing the hard work which is at the base building community.

We wrap up our three-part series on No Cop City, No Cop World (Haymarket Books, 2025), by speaking with co-editor and contributor Kamau Franklin, founder of Community Movement Builders, a Black member-based collective of community residents and activists serving Black working-class and poor Black communities.

Kamau's essay in the collection is titled, "Is This Enough Black Folks for You, Andre Dickens?," which is a reference to the current Atlanta mayor.

"The Moment of Truth" with Jeff Dorchen follows the interview.
