Jacobin’s Micah Uetricht sat down with Nina Turner to discuss the launch of her candidacy for Congress in Ohio’s 11th District. Turner speaks about the need to prioritize bread-and-butter issues like good jobs and affordable healthcare in places like Cleveland, the need to challenge members of the Democratic party who block legislation meant to improve the material conditions of the most vulnerable, and the need to go directly to the people to build pressure for progressive change.Subscribe to Jacobin: https://jacobinmag.com/subscribe/?code=JACOBINYT
